DTC P0523 - Oil Pressure Sensor Circuit High🔗

Conditions for Setting DTC P0523🔗

  • Engine Running
  • Oil Pressure Sensor ≥ 4.9 volts
  • The above must be present for a period of 128 instances/cycles or greater to trigger DTC P0523

Diagnostic Steps🔗

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 4.9 volts or greater?
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 connector "C" pin SP6 (for Drive-By-Cable harness & 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 stored codes
- Does the engine operate without any stored DTCs?
System is now operational and ready to be tuned Contact HP Tuners Support

Note

If the engine does not operate without stored DTCs after completing all steps, contact HP Tuners Support for further assistance.
