If it's bad, the pump motor will not start. It can be checked with a volt meter. You should have either 115 volts or 230 volts in and the same going to the motor.

Add a tee to the sender and put a guage in the tee . This will tell you the on and off points of the sender .

You can tell if your fuel pump shutoff switch is bad, if the fuel pump does not shut off when you flip the switch. You can also tell if the switch is bad by looking at the wire connections.
Switch could be bad or the schraeder valvee the switch screws into could be bad
Either replace with a known good switch or with a manual oil pressure gauge
Of which low pressure switch are you speaking? Engine oil pressure switch? If you're checking that, remove the oil pressure sending unit and temporarily put in an oil pressure gauge. If you're checking the AC low pressure switch, pull the switch from the AC low pressure line, Jumper the switch socket and see if the AC compressor comes on. If it does, you either have low refrigerant pressure or a bad switch. If you KNOW the pressure is up and everything else works, you have a bad switch.
Remove the oil sending unit and install a mechanical gauge. Start the engine cold and let it warm up to normal operating temperature. It the oil pressure is correct then replace the oil pressure switch.
The most common problem on these trucks will be a bad pressure switch along with a bad pressure switch pigtail.........

No, if the oil pressure switch is bad it will just give you a false reading of your oil pressure.
