    The document discusses an algorithm in the ECM that monitors engine oil level and can trigger fault code 471 if the oil level is too low. It also provides the component location, potential causes of the fault code, and troubleshooting steps.

    Potential causes of fault code 471 include: the engine not being filled to the proper capacity, external or internal oil leaks, and high oil consumption.

    The troubleshooting steps involve: checking for active fault codes, clearing any fault codes, disabling fault code 471, verifying it is inactive, and clearing any inactive fault codes.

    Circuit: Engine Oil Level Sensor.

    Circuit Description

    An algorithm in the ECM calibration monitors engine oil level while the ECM is keyed on
    and no engine speed is detected. If the engine oil level falls below a certain threshold, the
    ECM will activate Fault 471, as well as the maintenance lamp. The maintenance lamp will
    flash only during a keyon event.

    Component Location

    The engine oil level sensor is located on the engine oil dipstick, on the air intake side of the
    engine. Refer to Procedure 100-002 (Engine Diagrams) in section E for further details on
    dipstick location.

    Shop Talk

    If inactive counts of Fault 471 are logged in the ECM, it could be possible that the engine
    was running or keyed on while tilted at an angle severe enough to cause this fault to be
    triggered.

    Other causes of fault code 471 may include:

    z The engine may not have been filled to proper capacity during the most recent oil
    change
    z External engine oil leaks (oil leaking onto the ground)
    z Internal engine oil leaks (oil leaking into the fuel system or cooling system)
    z High engine oil consumption/power cylinder failure (check for abnormally high blowby
    when the engine is loaded).

    On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) Information:

    z The ECM illuminates the appropriate amber or red fault lamp when the diagnostic
    runs and fails
    z The ECM turns off the appropriate fault lamp when the diagnostic runs and passes.

    Cautions and Warnings

    CAUTION
    To reduce the possibility of damaging a new ECM, all other active fault
    codes must be investigated prior to replacing the ECM.

    CAUTION
    To reduce the possibility of pin and harness damage, use the following
    test leads when taking a measurement:
    Part Number 3822758 - male Deutsch/AMP/Metri-Pack test lead
    Part Number 3822917 - female Deutsch/AMP/Metri-Pack test lead.

    Troubleshooting Steps

    STEPS SPECIFICATIONS
    STEP 1. Check the fault codes.
    STEP 1A. Read the fault codes Fault Code 471 active?
    STEP 2. Clear the fault codes.
    STEP 2A. Disable the fault codes. Fault Code 471 inactive?
    STEP 2B. Clear the inactive fault All fault codes cleared?
    codes.

    Guided Step 1 - Check the fault codes.

    Guided Step 1A - Read the fault codes

    Conditions

    z Connect INSITE™ electronic


    service tool.
    z Turn keyswitch ON.
    z Engine oil temperature near
    ambient temperature.
    z Make sure the vehicle is parked on
    level ground.

    Action

    Read the fault codes.

    z Use INSITE™ to read the fault


    codes.

    Fault Code 471 active? Fault Code 471 active?


    YES NO
    Low engine lubricating oil level has been No Repair
    detected.

    Add engine lubricating oil to the engine.

    Refer to Procedure 007-037.

    Go to 2A Go to 2A

    Guided Step 2 - Clear the fault codes

    Guided Step 2A - Disable the fault codes.

    Conditions

    z Connect all components


    z Turn keyswitch ON
    z Connect INSITE™ electronic
    service tool.

    Action

    Disable the fault code.

    z Start the engine and let it idle for


    one minute
    z Using INSITE™, verify that the
    fault code is inactive.

    Is fault 471 inactive? Is fault 471 inactive?


    YES NO
    No Repair No Repair
    Go to 2B Go to 1A

    Guided Step 2B - Clear the inactive fault codes.

    Conditions

    z Connect all components


    z Turn keyswitch ON.
    z Connect INSITE™ electronic
    service tool

    Action

    Clear the inactive fault codes.

    z Erase the inactive fault codes


    using INSITE™.

    All fault codes cleared? All fault codes cleared?


    YES NO
    No Repair No Repair
    Repair complete. Appropriate troubleshooting steps.
