Sorry to "maybe" hijack... The sender that we use, seems VERY similar to the senders which are offered for aftermarket digital oil pressure displays. Has anyone in this thread tried using one of those aftermarket/universal displays with the stock sender?

Very similar in what way? As 3p pointed out the stock sender is unique. It's designed to work with not only the stock gage (itself unique) but also the TCCS.
Jet, if I remember correctly, was it you that said the oil pressure signal is used to adjust engine RPM +/- 50 RPM?
This is in response to you saying its design for the stock TCCS.

It's part of the idle speed control strategy. What make the stock sender unique though is the pulsating nature of its signal.

Meh, it's just the internet. Besides, I was a bit hard on you. Sorry 'bout that...

When I was looking at the digital oil pressure gauge (Autometer, I think), the accessory/optional sender, looked exactly like that on a 7M (which is why I did not buy the sender at the time, tho I ordered a different digital display). Just assumed it was a standard Toyota thing. Guess I can try it and see, then order theirs if necessary.
