    I'd put money it's your oil pressure sensor, do you have any codes coming up and does your pressure gauge fluctuate?
    Oil pressure sensor is located on drivers side, above the starter- it will have 3 wires going to it and has an 1 1/4" housing to put a wrench or socket on.
    The oil temperature sensor is located just under the pressure sensor image.jpeg

    Sensor on mine is generic, I replaced it once a year for a few years then put a plug in couple years back...
    You may well have heated those wires up n shorted them-id look there first.
    Are you finding what I described? If not I'll take a trip over to the truck n text you a video...
