Suddenly my oil pressure gauge reads at the max as soon as I turn on the ignition - is this a sender problem and how do I test for it?

The screen on my original equipment Becker radio simply went blankwithout warning,seemingly taking with it the auto aerial function and the dash clock. I checked the fuses under the hood and they appear ok-suggestions please..
I know the radio and aerial are linked but the clock too?

Any and all help greatly appreciated!

I am no expert, but I would check all the grounds. Faulty grounds can cause weird problems like these. I would make sure the ground strap between the chassis and the engine/trans is not frayed or broken. If there is a faulty ground, electricity will find a ground somewhere else.

Check your voltage with car running. Your regulator might be out, Over about 15.2 volts is NG.

Have you replaced all of your fuses yet?
