2014 6.7 how do I get oil pressure information?
I recently purchased a 2014 f350 6.7 King Ranch, I had not noticed the lack of an oil pressure gauge. It has always been my opinion that knowing that the pressure of the oil running through my engines is very important.
So I went to my diesel mechanic asking for a OBD2 monitoring device that would allow me to monitor oil pressure along with other important information.
The mechanic suggested the Edge Insight CTS3. After installing the unit I have not found oil pressure as a monitoring option.
Does anyone know, did Ford forget to provide oil pressure information at the OBD2 port.
Help!

Welcome to the site..
Oil sender is more of a switch. (Low pressure/Normal level).
PCM/OBD doesn't see an actual range, only a Go/No go of sorts partnering with the sender.
True/actual pressure ranging would have to use a manual type gauge.
Base pressure..'Minimum' of 10 PSI @ 700 RPM, 20 PSI @ 1200 RPM, 35 PSI @ 1800 RPM gauge will indicate a normal gauge range..
