1998 12V Can't Find Oil Pressure Sender

[RChesney]

Kind of lost or at least misplaced. I think I have an odd build on my 1998 2500. Trying to find the oil pressure sender so I can replace it. Looked at diagrams and thought it would be a piece of cake, but sender location for 12V all show it behind the power steering pump. Mine isn't there! Looking at the 24V, it appears to be near the ECM. I don't have an ECM since it's a 12V. But it is a Quad-Cab. Closest I can figure is it must be down behind the fuel/water separator. Besides the sender, now I'm wondering what engine I have in this thing? I bought it new in December of 1998, the last 12V they had on the lot. Any help appreciated!

Drivers side of the block. The IP is in the way, prob got to look from the bottom.

Turn the steering wheel all the way to the right. Then look in from the side, barely behind the axle, from just under the wheel well liner.

Thanks for the tips, guys. Have to wait until tomorrow and I'll try again.

Pull the connector, spray out the connections with contact cleaner . Plug it back see if come back to life.
Also the oil pressure sender grounds to the block. You mite try cleaning where it grounds. As I recall rubbing it with emery cloth.
