Default no oil light after replacing oil pump

My oil light is still on. I just replaced my gsr oil pump with a type-r one. I cleaned my oil pickup and my oil pan is free of dents. There is no v-tec so its obvious its the oil pressure. Im not losing oil either, the oil level is fine. If my vtec isnt hitting wouldnt I throw a cel code 22? Im just wandering what else in the engine has to do with oil pressure? Any help is appreciated.

Its the oil pressure sending unit most likelly. If your light is on the vtec won't work.

I thought the oil pressure sending unit is not connected to the ecu? Good or bad unit I should have vtec with the right oil pressure?

Grab a pressure gauge and T it to the oil pressure sending unit. If I remember correctly, you should have at least 5 psi at idle, and a minimum of 40 psi above 2,000 RPM.
