Circuit Description The oil pressure sensor is used by the electronic control module (ECM) to monitor the lubricating oil pressure. The ECM monitors the voltage on the signal pin and converts this to a pressure value. The oil pressure value is used by the ECM for the engine protection system.
Component Location The oil pressure sensor is located on the engine block below the ECM.
Shop Talk Verify, with the driver, the engine speed at which the fault occurs. If the engine is being operated at too low of a speed, the oil pressure can drop below the engine protection limits.
