DTC P250A:00 (PCM, VIN Y) 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 (XY) sensor (built-into SAS control module) signal is normal
	Drive cycle	1
	Self test type	CMDTC self test
	Sensor used	Engine oil level sensor Engine oil level sensor internal temperature sensor Low-G (XY) sensor (built-into SAS control module)
FAIL-SAFE FUNCTION	Not applicable
VEHICLE STATUS WHEN DTCs ARE OUTPUT	Illuminates master warning light. (Without multi-information display) The master warning indication is displayed on the multi-information display. (With multi-information display) Illuminates engine oil level warning light. The engine oil level warning indication is displayed on the multi-information display. (With multi-information display) Displays a message related to a engine oil level malfunction in the display.
POSSIBLE CAUSE	Excessive engine oil level (engine oil level exceeds measurable upper limit range of engine oil level sensor) Poor drainage during engine oil replacement Excessive engine oil resupplying Poor engine oil level adjustment Engine oil dilution 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 engine 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 Erratic signal to PCM Engine oil level sensor connector or terminals malfunction Short to ground in wiring harness between engine oil level sensor terminal C and PCM terminal 2BG Open circuit in wiring harness between engine oil level sensor terminal C and PCM terminal 2BG PCM malfunction
