Circuit/System Description
The change engine oil lamp is located on the instrument panel cluster (IPC). The lamp informs the driver if an engine oil change is required. The engine control module (ECM) monitors the lamp control circuit for conditions that are incorrect for the commanded state of the lamp. For example, a failure condition exists if the ECM detects low voltage when the lamp is commanded OFF, or high voltage when the lamp is commanded ON.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | The ignition is ON. |
| • | The ignition voltage is between 8.5-16.5 volts. |
| • | DTC P1663 runs continuously once the above conditions are met. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
P1663 01
The ECM detects a short to voltage on the circuit that controls the lamp.
P1663 02
The ECM detects a short to ground on the circuit that controls the lamp.
P1663 04
The ECM detects an open on the circuit that controls the lamp.
P1663 54
The ECM detects that the internal output driver is over temperature.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
DTC P1663 is a Type C DTC.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTC P1663 is a Type C DTC.

Circuit/System Verification
Ignition ON, command the lamp ON and OFF with a scan tool. The lamp should turn ON and OFF as commanded.
Circuit/System Testing
- If any other IPC indicators or gages are inoperative, refer to Symptoms - Displays and Gages.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the ECM harness connectors. Ignition ON, the lamp should not illuminate.
- Ignition ON, connect a 3A fused jumper wire between the lamp control circuit and ground. The lamp should illuminate.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the ECM.
| ⇒ | If the lamp is illuminated, test the lamp control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the IPC. |
| ⇒ | If the lamp does not illuminate, test the lamp control circuit for a short to voltage, or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the IPC/bulb. |
