Pinpoint Test Av: The Low Oil Pressure RTT (RECONFIGURABLE Telltale) Is Never Or Always On (2.3L [Performance], 5.0L [Performance] And 5.2L Engines)

  1. Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

    See Low Engine Oil Pressure RTT. REFER to: Message Center - System Operation and Component Description .

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

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

    DTC Fault Trigger Conditions 

    DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition
    PCM P0521:00 Engine Oil Pressure Sensor/Switch "A" Circuit Range/Performance: No Sub Type Information Sets in the PCM when the PCM detects signal variation outside of the module parameters on the hardwired input from the engine oil pressure sensor.
    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.
    PCM P0524:00 Engine Oil Pressure Too Low: No Sub Type Information Sets in the PCM when the PCM detects low engine oil pressure.
