P1189

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The engine oil pressure switch closes (signal circuit is low) with low oil pressure and opens (signal circuit is high) with oil pressure above 4.5 psi. The PCM monitors the oil pressure switch signal circuit and sends a class 2 message to the body control module (BCM) indicating the switch status. The BCM sends a message via the class 2 serial data circuit to the IPC in order to illuminate the low oil pressure indicator.

CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
^ DTCs P0117, P0118, P1111 and P1114 are not set.
^ The ignition is ON, with the engine OFF.
^ The engine temperature is 10°C (50°F) less than the last key off temperature.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
^ The PCM detects that the oil pressure switch signal circuit is high.
^ The above conditions are present for greater than 10 seconds.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
