Pinpoint Test AF: The Low Engine Oil Pressure Warning RTT (RECONFIGURABLE Telltale) Indicator Is Never Or Always On

  1. Refer to INSTRUMENT CLUSTER for schematic and connector information.

    Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

    See Low Engine Oil Pressure Warning. REFER to: Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) - System Operation and Component Description .

    If the engine rpm data or engine oil pressure warning indicator request message is missing less than 5 seconds, the IPC defaults the low engine oil pressure warning RTT indicator to the last state (on or off), based upon the last message received.

    If the engine rpm data or engine oil pressure warning indicator request message is missing for 5 seconds or longer, the IPC defaults the low engine oil pressure warning RTT indicator on.

    DTC Fault Trigger Conditions 

    DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition
    PCM P0522:00 Engine Oil Pressure Sensor/Switch "A" Circuit Low: No Sub Type Information Sets in the PCM when the PCM detects a short to ground on the hardwired input from the engine oil pressure sensor.
    PCM P0523:00 Engine Oil Pressure Sensor/Switch "A" Circuit High: No Sub Type Information Sets in the PCM when the PCM detects an open on the hardwired input from the engine oil pressure sensor.
