I am not getting any power to the oil pressure light. Blue wire goes from sending unit to the dash. If I hook up a wire from the batt to the wire at the sending unit, I get power at the harness . Where does that wire get its power from? My TSM is worn and i can't trace the blue wire

Not sure about your particular car, but generally the oil light is on a grounding circuit so the sender provides a ground when the oil pressure is low. In that scenario, if you unhook the wire at the sending unit and ground it, the light will come on.
