There have been some that have had trouble with some aftermarket oil pressure sending units. Including me.
Because of that, I buy this part directly from Jeep for best reliability/accuracy/mating with your factory gauge. Well worth the extra $20.

also check the connection of the wires going into the unit plug. they are esily fubarred during oil changes if you are not careful.
