A01 Engine Oil Pressure Error
Error detection method
• When the engine oil pressure switch is OFF continuously for 4 seconds during engine operations (complete
combustion,) the engine will be shut down momentarily and an error fl ag set. The reason for the engine being
shut down is due to the error fl ag being triggered fi ve consecutive times in one hour.
* When the engine oil pressure switch is not detected within ten seconds of the engine being started (complete
combustion.)
• When oil pressure (engine earth common) K21 or K25 (short circuit) are detected at the engine oil pressure
switch contact with oil pressure detected.
