ROCKER ARM OIL PRESSURE SENSOR
Less than 0.24
V
    

Do the current condition(s) match the threshold?

     
YES
     
     
     
The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.
     
NO
     
     
     
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the rocker arm oil pressure sensor and the PCM. If the on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the on-board snapshot.?

?1.
Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

?2.
Disconnect the following connector.
Rocker arm oil pressure sensor 3P connector

?3.
Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

Determine possible failure area (rocker arm oil pressure sensor, others)
?1.
Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition
Vehicle ON mode
 
Rocker arm oil pressure sensor 3P connector: disconnected
Test point 1
Rocker arm oil pressure sensor 3P connector (female terminals) No. 1:
Test point 2
Rocker arm oil pressure sensor 3P connector (female terminals) No. 3:


Is there about 5.0 V?

     
YES
     
     
     
     
NO
     
     
     
Go to step 4.
4.
Open wire check (VCC2 3 line):

Open wire check (VCC2 3 line)
?1.
Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

?2.
Jump the SCS line with the HDS, and wait more than 1 minute.


?3.
Disconnect the following connector.
PCM connector No. 1 (96P)

?4.
Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition
Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
Rocker arm oil pressure sensor 3P connector: disconnected
PCM connector No. 1 (96P): disconnected
Test point 1
Rocker arm oil pressure sensor 3P connector (female terminals) No. 3:
Test point 2
PCM connector No. 1 (96P) No. 82


Is there 1.0 ? or less?

     
YES
     
     
     
The VCC2 3 wire is OK. Check for any authorized service information related to the DTCs or symptoms you are troubleshooting, or substitute a known-good PCM, then recheck. If DTC P0522 goes away and the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM.?
     
NO
     
     
     
Repair an open in the VCC2 3 wire between PCM connector No. 1 terminal No. 82 and the rocker arm oil pressure sensor.?
5.
Shorted wire check (OPSEN line):

Shorted wire check (OPSEN line)
?1.
Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

?2.
Jump the SCS line with the HDS, and wait more than 1 minute.


?3.
Disconnect the following connector.
PCM connector No. 1 (96P)

?4.
Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition
Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
Rocker arm oil pressure sensor 3P connector: disconnected
PCM connector No. 1 (96P): disconnected
Test point 1
Rocker arm oil pressure sensor 3P connector (female terminals) No. 2:
Test point 2
Body ground


Is there 1 M? or more?

     
YES
     
     
     
The OPSEN wire is OK. Check for any authorized service information related to the DTCs or symptoms you are troubleshooting, or substitute a known-good PCM, then recheck. If DTC P0522 goes away and the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM.?
     
NO
     
     
     
Repair a short in the OPSEN wire between PCM connector No. 1 terminal No. 47 and the rocker arm oil pressure sensor.?
