Default Oil pressure gauge quick question

I was sitting in my Blazer, after giving her a wash, and noticed that the oil gauge was giving me a reading without the keys in it. So I put the key back in and turned it to on, but didn't start it. When I turned the key to off, the gauge went back to zero reading and then started moving up again. I was just wondering if this was normal? Thx

Yup, totally normal. The gauges can do all kinds of weird things when everything's turned off. What matters is what they say when it's running.
