The 97 oil pressure gauge sending unit will have a two pin configuration and, I think, that if you only have idiot lights, it may be a single pin switch, not a gauge sending unit.

Autozone has a double and a single version. Had this issue with friends late 96 4.0 if I remember the Canadian version was one wire.

It appears your question didn't get answered... Often times the single pin type use the threads as the negative connection... The dual pin uses wire for the ground... Ya just need to figure out which pin is used for the ground and which is for signal... Connect the signal to your wire and the other pin to a ground...

After doing a bit of research I came up with the 1995's had single pin and the 96 is when they went to two pin... Seems odd that you would have a 1997 jeep with a 1995 wiring harness in it...
