Default Oil Pressure Gauge Failure?

I just finished replacing my ls1 intake with a fast 90. Started the car and took it for a test drive. While driving I noticed that my pressure gauge was sitting at zero. Before doing this swap my car always sat at 40psi now its at zero. I'm wondering if I may have accidentally unplug something or broke something when working on the intake. I also did a EGR/AIR delete, I don't think that has did it. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

its possible you broke your sensor. check to see if its reconnected first though.

99% you broke your OPSU and 1% that its left unplugged. let the car sit and cool down and check if its unplugged. you can replace it with the intake on but its a really pain in the *** to do. an OPSU socket would be of a great help.

Thanks guys that was totally it. Guess my dad and I broke it when taking the intake off and over looked it. It broke at the base of the sensor.
