Yeah, the oil pressure gauge in my motorhome (Cummins ISC 350 diesel motor)
is an idiot light by any other name. They apparently had so many problems
with the sending units that now it always reads either 55 PSI or zero (just
a switch, in other words). And that's something made only a few years
ago. Hardly worth a gauge taking up valuable real estate on my instrument
panel (there are already enough gauges & switches on it!).
