Purpose of Adoption

• To decrease oil pump drive resistance, the engine oil solenoid valve prevents the oil pressure from increasing to the set pressure or more.

Service Point

• To examine, verify that the oil pressure gauge value changes under the following conditions, and if the value does not change perform part inspection on the engine oil solenoid valve.

― Engine warming condition (engine coolant temperature less than 98 °C)

― Engine speed 4,000 rpm or more

― PID item OIL_P_SOL turned from ON to OFF

• The engine oil solenoid valve has a built in oil pressure switch.

Common Inquiry

Other

• The oil pump adjusts the oil pressure in two steps (low oil pressure setting, high oil pressure setting) by operating the engine oil solenoid valve to switch the oil passage.
