DTC P0523: Rocker Arm Oil Pressure Sensor (EOP Sensor) Circuit High Voltage

NOTE:

- Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and review the general troubleshooting information. Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes

- Information marked with an asterisk (*) applies to '07-10 models.

1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

2. Check the OIL PRESSURE SENSOR in the DATA LIST with the HDS.

Is there about 4.79 V or more?
YES - Go to step 3.

NO - Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the rocker arm oil pressure sensor (EOP sensor) and the ECM/PCM.


3. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

4. Disconnect the rocker arm oil pressure sensor (EOP sensor) 3P connector.

5. Connect rocker arm oil pressure sensor (EOP sensor) 3P connector terminals No. 2 and No. 3 with a jumper wire.

6. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

7. Check the OIL PRESSURE SENSOR in the DATA LIST with the HDS.

Is there about 4.79 V or more?
YES - Go to step 8.

NO - Go to step 18.






8. Remove the jumper wire.

9. Measure the voltage between rocker arm oil pressure sensor (EOP sensor) 3P connector terminals No. 1 and No. 3.

Is there about 5 V?
YES - Go to step 14.

NO - Go to step 10.






10. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

11. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.

12. Disconnect ECM/PCM connector C (44P) (B (44P))*.

13. Check for continuity between ECM/PCM connector terminal C14 (B33)* and rocker arm oil pressure sensor (EOP sensor) 3P connector terminal No. 3.

Is there continuity?
YES - Go to step 26.

NO - Repair open in the wire between the ECM/PCM (C14) (B33)* and the rocker arm oil pressure sensor (EOP sensor), then go to step 20.

14. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

15. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.

16. Disconnect ECM/PCM connector C (44P).

17. Check for continuity between ECM/PCM connector terminal C22 and rocker arm oil pressure sensor (EOP sensor) 3P connector terminal No. 2.

Is there continuity?
YES - Go to step 26.

NO - Repair open in the wire between the ECM/PCM (C22) and the rocker arm oil pressure sensor (EOP sensor), then go to step 20.






18. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

19. Replace the rocker arm oil pressure sensor (EOP sensor). Service and Repair

20. Reconnect all connectors.

21. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

22. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS.

23. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure. ECM/PCM Idle Learn Procedure

24. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.

Is DTC P0523 indicated?
YES - Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the rocker arm oil pressure sensor (EOP sensor) and the ECM/PCM, then go to step 1.

NO - Go to step 25.


25. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0523 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.

Does the screen indicated PASSED?
YES - Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs were indicated in step 24, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.

NO - If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the rocker arm oil pressure sensor (EOP sensor) and the ECM/PCM, then go to step 1. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, keep idling until a result comes on.


26. Reconnect all connectors.

27. Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software, ECM/PCM Update or substitute a known-good ECM/PCM. Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes

28. Start the engine, and let it idle.

29. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.

Is DTC P0523 indicated?
YES - Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the rocker arm oil pressure sensor (EOP sensor) and the ECM/PCM. If the ECM/PCM was updated, substitute a known-good ECM/PCM, Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes then go to step 28. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, go to step 1.

NO - Go to step 30.


30. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0523 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.

Does the screen indicate PASSED?
YES - If the ECM/PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, replace the original ECM/PCM. Service and Repair If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs were indicated in step 29, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.

NO - If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the rocker arm oil pressure sensor (EOP sensor) and the ECM/PCM. If the ECM/PCM was updated, substitute a known-good ECM/PCM, Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes then go to step 28. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, go to step 1. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, keep idling until a result comes on.
