Nice I have the exact same readings that makes me feel better
Hey I've got a 2024 XL 2.3 ranger and mine reads exactly like the comments above, you want to remember that if your idle is 700 rpm then your oil pressure is 7 or 8 psi ,if your rpm is 2000 than your oil pressure is 20 or 22 psi they run even between the rpm and psi guages ,but I haven't figured out what the guage at the far left is ,the icon symbol is a spiked wheel and one curved line on top and the same on bottom, it has something to do with the oil psi ! can anyone help on that one!!

I noticed under continues hwy speed and just over 2000rpm.
The silly gauge would rapidly jump all over the place.
So I setup the actual numerical gauges.
Was surprised at even after an hour at study 2,100rpm.
The pressure would jump from about 26 to 49 and everything between.
Never staying at any number more than 1/2 a second or so!
Anyone else notice this?

I didn't know the oil pressure gauge was live, at first. I thought it was a dial-based dummy light, rather like many temperature gauges; they're just calibrated to sit in the middle.

Scared the devil out of me when the heat started coming out of the vents and I saw the oil pressure gauge at the bottom of the dial accompanied by a check engine light. 🤣

Turns out it was just the ambient temperature sensor.
