Sounds like you are describing the Oil Pressure sender. Is your oil light on?
IIRC [And I haven't owned a 5S in years] it just requires a female spade type connector available at any Walmart.
Take a pic - that would help.

Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.

the oil light will not come on if the wire is broken.
D is right, sounds like the oil pressure sensor.

they tend to get brittle over the years from the heat off the exhaust manifold.
easy fix.
grab a plug and pigtail either used from a junkyard, or from pheonixtuning, or thru art (lagos) here on the board.
cut back the factory wiring to where its not brittle anymore, and splice it in, bing bam boom, done.
