Section 27.4
SPN 100/FMI 4
A typical diagnosis is an Engine Oil Pressure Sensor circuit failed low.
Section 27.4.1
Multiple Code Check
Check for multiple codes as follows:
- Turn the ignition ON (key ON, engine OFF).
- Plug in diagnostic tool and check for multiple codes.
- If 175/4 and 3480/4 are present with 100/4, repair the open between pin 82 of the MCM 120–pin connector and the associated sensors. Refer to "27.4.1.1 Verify Repairs" .
- If 175/4 is present with 100/4, repair the open between pin 82 of the MCM 120–pin connector and pin 3 of the Engine Oil Temperature/Pressure Sensor. Refer to "27.4.1.1 Verify Repairs" .
- If only 100/4 is present, refer to "27.4.1 Open Short to Ground Check" .
Section 27.4.2
Open Short to Ground Check
Check for an Engine Oil Temperature/Pressure Sensor open short to ground as follows:
- Disconnect the Engine Oil Temperature/Pressure Sensor.
- Measure the resistance between pins 1 and 3 of the Engine Oil Temperature/Pressure Sensor.
- If the resistance is greater than 130k Ω, replace the Engine Oil Temperature/Pressure Sensor. Refer to "27.4.1.1 Verify Repairs" .
- If the resistance is less than 130k Ω, go to step 4 .
- Measure the resistance between pins 1 and 4 of the combination sensor.
- If the resistance is greater than 130k Ω, replace the sensor. Refer to "27.4.1.1 Verify Repairs" .
- If the resistance is less than 130k Ω, go to step 4 .
- Disconnect the MCM 120–pin connector.
- Measure the resistance between pins 1 and 4 of the sensor harness connector.
- If the resistance is greater than 5 Ω, go to step 6 .
- If the resistance is less than 5 Ω, repair the short between wires 105 and 54 of the MCM 120–pin connector. Refer to "27.4.1.1 Verify Repairs" .
- Measure the resistance between pin 4 of the sensor harness connector and ground.
- If the resistance is greater than 5 Ω, repair the open between pin 4 of the sensor and pin 54 of the MCM 120–pin connector. See Figure "Engine Oil Temperature/Pressure Sensor" . Refer to "27.4.1.1 Verify Repairs" .
- If the resistance is less than 5 Ω, repair the short to ground circuit between pin 54 of the MCM 120–pin connector and ground. See Figure "Engine Oil Temperature/Pressure Sensor" . Refer to "27.4.1.1 Verify Repairs" .

Verify Repairs
Verify repairs as follows:
- Turn ignition OFF.
- Reconnect any electrical connections that were disconnected to perform the diagnosis.
- Clear codes with DDDL 7.0 or latest version.
- Start and bring engine up to operating temperature (over 140°F/60°C).
- Verify operation is satisfactory and no warning lamps illuminate. If warning lamps illuminate, troubleshoot the codes. If assistance is required, call the Detroit Diesel Customer Support Center at 313–592–5800.
