Oil Pressure Gauge Incorrect Test

  1. Enter self-diagnostics, and check if BCM diagnostic code B132 is set. If Code B132 is set, repair as required. See TESTS W/CODES article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE section. If no codes are present, go to next step.
  2. Determine if engine has a high or low oil pressure condition by removing oil pressure sensor. Connect a known good mechanical oil pressure gauge to vehicle. If oil pressure is okay, go to next step.
  3. Unplug oil pressure sensor connector. Oil pressure sensor is located on right side of engine, above drive axle. With ignition switch in RUN position, connect a voltmeter between oil pressure sensor connector terminal "A" (Light/Green wire) and ground. If voltmeter indicates 5 volts, replace oil pressure sensor. If 5 volts are not present, go to next step.
  4. Using a voltmeter, backprobe terminal 3C3 (Light Green wire) of BCM to ground. BCM is located behind left side of instrument panel compartment, on the right side of instrument panel. If 5 volts are present, check and repair wiring connections as necessary. If 5 volts are not present, check Light Green wire for a short to ground. If wire is okay, replace BCM.
