DTC P0523  : Rocker Arm Oil Pressure Sensor Circuit High Voltage

NOTE:  Before you troubleshoot, review the general troubleshooting information .

DTC Description Confirmed DTC Pending DTC
P0523 Rocker Arm Oil Pressure Sensor Circuit High Voltage    

DTC (PGM-FI)

  1. Problem verification

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    -2. Check the parameter (s) below with the HDS.

    Signal Threshold Current conditions
    Values Unit Values Unit
    ROCKER ARM OIL PRESSURE SENSOR More than 4.79 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 .

  2. Determine possible failure area (rocker arm oil pressure sensor, others)

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

    -2. Disconnect the following connector.

    Rocker arm oil pressure sensor 3P connector

    -3. Connect terminals A and B with a jumper wire.

    Terminal A Rocker arm oil pressure sensor 3P connector (female terminals) No. 1:
    Terminal B Rocker arm oil pressure sensor 3P connector (female terminals) No. 2:

    -4. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    -5. Check the parameter (s) below with the HDS.

    Signal Threshold Current conditions
    Values Unit Values Unit
    ROCKER ARM OIL PRESSURE SENSOR More than 4.79 V    

    Do the current condition (s) match the threshold?

    YES 

    Go to step 3.

    NO 

    Replace the rocker arm oil pressure sensor .

  3. Determine possible failure area (SG2 line, others)

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

    -2. Remove the jumper wire from the rocker arm oil pressure sensor 3P connector.

    -3. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    -4. 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 

    Go to step 5.

    NO 

    Go to step 4.

  4. Open wire check (SG2 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 E (80P)

    -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 E (80P): disconnected
    Test point 1 Rocker arm oil pressure sensor 3P connector (female terminals) No. 1:
    Test point 2 PCM connector E (80P) No. 58

    Is there continuity?

    YES 

    The SG2 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 P0523 goes away and the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM .

    NO 

    Repair an open in the SG2 wire between the PCM (E58) and the rocker arm oil pressure sensor.

  5. Open wire check (OP SENSOR 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 E (80P)

    -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 E (80P): disconnected
    Test point 1 Rocker arm oil pressure sensor 3P connector (female terminals) No. 2:
    Test point 2 PCM connector E (80P) No. 36

    Is there continuity?

    YES 

    The OP SENSOR 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 P0523 goes away and the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM .

    NO 

    Repair an open in the OP SENSOR wire between the PCM (E36) and the rocker arm oil pressure sensor.
