Did you perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle?

Go to Step 2

Go to Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle in Vehicle DTC Information

1. Install a scan tool.
2. Turn the ignition ON, with the engine OFF.
3. With a scan tool, observe one of the following Engine Oil Level Switch parameters:

•	Engine Oil Level Switch in the engine control module (ECM) Engine Data 1 data list (LLY and LG4)

•	Engine Oil Level Switch in the powertrain control module (PCM) Engine Data 2 data list (L18)

Does the Engine Oil Level Switch parameter display OK?

Go to Step 3

Go to Step 4

Does the low engine oil level indicator remain illuminated after the displays test?

Go to Step 11

Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring Systems

1. Turn the ignition OFF.
2. Disconnect the engine oil level switch.
3. Connect a fused jumper between the signal circuit of the engine oil level switch and a good ground.
4. Turn the ignition ON, with the engine OFF.
5. With the scan tool, observe the Engine Oil Level Switch parameter.

Does the Engine Oil Level Switch parameter display OK?

Go to Step 6

Go to Step 5

Test the signal circuit of the engine oil level switch for a short to battery voltage, an open, or a high resistance. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Did you find and correct the condition?

Go to Step 12

Go to Step 8

Test the ground circuit of the engine oil level switch for an open or a high resistance. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Did you find and correct the condition?

Go to Step 12

Go to Step 7

Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the engine oil level switch. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Did you find and correct the condition?

Go to Step 12

Go to Step 9

Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the PCM. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Did you find and correct the condition?

Go to Step 12

Go to Step 10

Replace the engine oil level switch. Refer to one of the following procedures:
