- Engine oil pressure sensor
Function: it indicates to the instrument panel if there is enough oil pressure (0.5 +/- 0.2 bar (7.25 +/- 2.9 PSI)) in the engine.
Operation / Operating principle: normally closed switch. With oil pressure above 0.5 +/-0.2 bar (7.25 +/- 2.9 PSI), open circuit.
Location on the vehicle: right side of the vehicle, under the oil sump
Pin-out: Voltage 5V
Error DSB 07
Error cause
An oil sensor failure is signalled when, with engine off, it is detected that the sensor circuit is open. The test is performed only once when the key is set to ON. This error is signalled by the bulb icon and the general warning light turns on as well.
Troubleshooting
Check the sensor connector and the instrument panel connector (PIN 17): If not OK, restore. If OK, check the continuity of the purple cable between the sensor connector and the instrument panel connector PIN 17: if not OK, restore the cable harness; if OK, replace the sensor.
Error DSB 08
Error cause
An oil sensor failure is signalled when, with engine running, it is detected that the sensor circuit is closed. This error is signalled by the bulb icon and the general warning light turns on as well.
Troubleshooting
Check if oil pressure is low with the specific gauge.
