low oil dash light will not turn on no matter what (yes I changed the bulb)

My low oil light on my evo 8 will not turn on. At first I thought it was a burnt out bulb. Tried two bulbs, still nothing. When I turn the key on, all the other dash lights come on but the oil light bulb. Just went out and unpluged the oil sensor, hopped in the car and same thing. I did buy a new oil pressure sensor but I dont think thats going to do anything. I know its kindof a dummy light but I still want it to work.

What could it be?

update

Just changed the oil pressure sensor and sure enough, that was it. They are normally closed, odd that it failed open. Couldn't find anything on this issue when I searched so hopefully this helps someone in the future.
