Low Oil Level
The instrument panel cluster (IPC) displays the low oil level indicator when the PCM/ECM detects the engine oil level is low. The PCM/ECM monitors the signal circuit of the engine oil level switch to determine the oil level. The IPC receives a serial data message from the PCM/ECM requesting display of the indicator in the IPC.
The instrument panel cluster (IPC) displays the LOW OIL LEVEL message in the DIC when the PCM/ECM detects a low engine oil level condition. The PCM/ECM monitors the signal circuit of the engine oil level switch to determine the oil level. The IPC receives a serial data message from the PCM/ECM requesting display of the LOW OIL LEVEL message in the DIC (if equipped with uplevel IPC UH8).
