Oil Pressure Gauge Pegged

Replaced engine. Fires right up.
Oil gauge is pegged. Replace sensor and checked the wiring the best I could.

What else could it be?

Looks like the sensor wire is either pinched or broken somewhere in the harness that runs into the cab.

The plug near the oil sensor near the intake. The insulation was intact. But the wire was broken inside.
