DTC P0522 - Oil Pressure Sensor Circuit Low

Conditions for setting dtc P0522

Engine Running
Oil Pressure Sensor ≤ 0.1 volts
The above must be present for a period of 128 instances/cycles or greater to trigger DTC P0522

Step

Action

Value (s)

YES

NO

1

- Key on, Engine running

- Within VCM Live, open the Oil Pressure sensor DTC parameter, does the Oil Pressure sensor parameter display 0.1 volts or less?

≤ 0.1 volts

Go to Step 2

Intermittent Issue

(Refer to Intermittent Diagnostics)

2

- Key OFF

- Disconnect the Oil Pressure sensor connector & the Oil Pressure sensor ECU connector "C"

- Using a DVOM check for continuity between the oil pressure sensor signal connector cavity 3 (for Drive-By-Cable harness) cavity 1 (for Drive-By-Wire Harness) & the ECU connector "C" pin 19 (for Drive-By-Cable harness & Drive-By-Wire harnesses)

- Do you have continuity between them?

 

Go to Step 3

Repair the circuit as necessary, locate any wires that need to be repaired or replaced

3

- Key OFF

- Disconnect the Oil Pressure sensor connector & the Oil Pressure sensor ECU connector "C"

- Using a DVOM check for continuity between the oil pressure sensor 5 volt reference connector cavity 2 (for Drive-By-Cable harness & Drive-By-Wire harnesses) & the ECU 5v C18-2 (for Drive-By-Cable harness) & C41-2 (Drive-By-Wire harnesses)

- Do you have continuity between them?

 

Go to Step 4

Repair the circuit as necessary, locate any wires that need to be repaired or replaced

4

- Key OFF

- Disconnect the Oil Pressure sensor connector & the Oil Pressure sensor ECU connector "C"

- Using a DVOM check for continuity between the oil pressure sensor low reference connector cavity 1 (for Drive-By-Cable harness) cavity 3 (for Drive-By-Wire Harness) & the ECU connector "C" pin SP3 (for Drive-By-Cable harness & Drive-By-Wire harnesses)

- Do you have continuity between them?

 

Go to Step 5

Repair the circuit as necessary, locate any wires that need to be repaired or replaced

5

- Replace Oil Pressure Sensor

- Is the replacement complete?

 

Go to Step 6

N/A

6

- Clear any DTC from the ECU

- Turn the ignition off and wait 30 seconds

- Start the engine and operate the engine to full operating temperature

- Observe the Check Engine Light on the Menu bar in VCM Live

- After operating the engine within the test parameters, check for any store codes

- Does the engine operate without any stored DTC's?

 

System is now operational and ready to be tuned
