21. Do the PCM idle learn procedure ECM/PCM Idle Learn Procedure.
22. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC P0522 indicated?
YES -
Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the rocker arm oil pressure sensor and the PCM, then go to step 1.
NO -
Go to step 23.
23. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0522 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.
Does the screen indicate PASSED?
YES -
Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs were indicated in step 22, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.�
NO -
If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the rocker arm oil pressure sensor and the PCM, then go to step 1. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, keep idling until a result comes on.
24. Reconnect all connectors.
25. Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software ECM/PCM Update, or substitute a known-good PCM Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview.
26. Start the engine, and let it idle.
27. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC P0522 indicated?
YES -
Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the rocker arm oil pressure sensor and the PCM. If the PCM was updated, substitute a known-good PCM Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview, then go to step 26. If the PCM was substituted, go to step 1.
NO -
Go to step 28.
28. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0522 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.
Does the screen indicate PASSED?
YES -
If the PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM Service and Repair. If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs were indicated in step 27, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.�
NO -
If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the rocker arm oil pressure sensor and the PCM. If the PCM was updated, substitute a known-good PCM Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview, then go to step 26. If the PCM was substituted, go to step 1. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, keep idling until a result comes on.
