DTC P250A:00 (PCM, SKYACTIV-G) DETECTION CONDITION AND POSSIBLE CAUSE
| Description |
Engine oil level signal: engine oil level sensor malfunction |
| Detection condition |
Determination conditions |
- PCM receives abnormal signal from the engine oil level sensor.
|
| Preconditions |
- Battery voltage: 10-16 V
- The following DTC is not detected:
- Communication error between engine oil level sensor and PCM: U1100:00
- Low-G sensor (built-into Sophisticated Airbag Sensor (SAS) control module) signal is normal
|
| Drive cycle |
|
| Self test type |
|
| Sensor used |
- Engine oil level sensor
- Engine oil level sensor internal temperature sensor
- Low-G sensor (built-into Sophisticated Airbag Sensor (SAS) control module)
|
| Fail-safe function |
|
| Vehicle status when DTCs are output |
|
| Possible cause |
- Excessive engine oil level (oil level exceeds measurable upper limit range of engine oil level sensor)
- Poor drainage during engine oil replacement
- Excessive engine oil resupplying
- Poor oil level adjustment
NOTE:
- If a condition in which the engine oil temperature does not increase sufficiently is repeated, such as when driving short distances, the fuel does not vaporize, engine oil dilution continues, and then the oil level increases.
- Engine oil level sensor malfunction
- Clogging of oil passage to engine oil level sensor detection area
- Engine oil level sensor internal application specific integrated circuit malfunction
- Engine oil level sensor connector or terminals malfunction
- Short to ground in engine oil level sensor LIN communication line
- Open circuit in engine oil level sensor LIN communication line
