Pinpoint Test An: The Low Engine Oil Pressure Warning Indicator Is Never Or Always On

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2021 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Refer to Wiring Diagrams 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 indicator or RTT warning 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 indicator or RTT warning indicator on.

    DTC Fault Trigger Conditions 

    DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition
    PCM P0520:00 Engine Oil Pressure Sensor/Switch "A" Circuit: No Sub Type Information Sets in the PCM when the PCM detects a fault 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 U0600:00 Lost Communication With Engine Oil Pressure Sensor "A": No Sub Type Information Sets in the PCM when the PCM detects a loss of voltage on the engine oil pressure signal circuit.
