Default oil pressure gauge V6

Where is the oil pressure gauge on this 3.4L ? I had the TSB done and haven't really noticed much difference, still reads about 1/8 on the gauge when warm in gear. I would like to look at the production date and check on that. Thanks in advance
Don

I too had the oil pressure sender guage replaced. The oil pressure guage continues to read between 0 and 1/8 when idling. Is this normal or do you think Toyota replaced one bad oil pressure sender with another?

They are supposed to watch the production date on the sending unit when they replace it. It would seem strange that with the TSB and all, that it would still read so low after. That's why I'd like to check the date on the unit myself first and go from there.

Default TSB oil gauge

See EL006-03 titled OIL PRESSURE GAUGE READS LOW in the Service Bulletins Database

TSB is applicable to 2000 – some 2003 model year Sequoia and Tundra
