Worn crankshaft bearings, oil pump, or a defective oil pressure sending unit. Have a oil pressure test done with a mechanical gauge, the electric gauge is not very accurate and is prone too failure.
Why would your oil pressure sensor register no pressure if the car is running fine?
Many sending units do not have continuity below 6-7psi. This would cause the gauge to read nothing and indicate a base engine problem. Some type of engine noise would be associated with this concern (ie. ticking, rattling). The sending unit or wire to the gauge could be open. This would be an electrical problem and have nothing to do with the engine. Along that same line would be a defective gauge.
What is wrong when the oil presuure gauge does not read and the oil light is on in a 1997 Cadillac Catera?

How do you tell if your oil pump is going out?
You need to get a manual oil pressure gauge that reads LBS. per squire inch so you can read what the oil pressure is for sure. Then remove the oil sending unit from the engine and screew the oil pressure gauge in it's place and start the engine and read what it says. I would give you the oil pressure SPECS. and tell you where the sending unit is, but you did not say what year are engine size and what it is in.

No pressur on gauge. How do you check an oil pomp of a MB 300D?
Have to remove oil gauge sending unit and check pressure with a master gauge. Sender or gauge could be faulty. I would not suspect the pump unless you see signs. First of all, does the gauge have pressure when the oil is cold? If it does and the pressure drops off when the oil gets hot, then you cold have a pump or relief valve problem. Removing the pump and inspecting should be your last resort.
