Riviera V6-231 3.8L VIN L SFI (1991)
Oil Pressure Circuit
DESCRIPTION:
The BCM provides voltage to the oil pressure circuit, and the oil pressure sensor provides the single path to ground. The BCM supplies and internally
monitors the voltage level of the circuit at pin 3C3/3D9. The sensor acts like a variable resistor, when the oil pressure is high, resistance is high, and the
BCM will detects high voltage. As the oil pressure decreases so will the voltage level sensed by the BCM at pin 3C3/3D9. The BCM will then calculate
the oil pressure by the amount of voltage present, and when the calculated oil pressure drops below 6.0 psi, and all other failure conditions have been
met, the BCM will illuminate the "OIL PRESSURE" telltale on the IPC.
TEST CONDITIONS:
Engine has been running for at least 5.0 seconds.
FAILURE CONDITIONS:
1.
Oil pressure less than 6.0 psi.
2.
Engine speed greater than 600 rpm.
3.
Code B334 is set.
ACTION TAKEN:
1.
Illuminate the "LOW OIL PRESSURE" telltale on IPC.
