18 N·m
(1.8 kgf·m,
13 lbf·ft)

1. Remove the YEL/RED wire (A) from the engine oil

pressure switch (B).

2. Check for continuity between the positive terminal

(C) and the engine (ground). There should be
continuity with the engine stopped. There should
be no continuity with the engine running.

3. If the switch fails to operate, check the engine oil

level. If the engine oil level is OK, check the engine
oil pressure. If the oil pressure is OK, replace the oil
pressure switch (see page 8-6).

1. Disconnect the oil pressure switch connector, then

remove the oil pressure switch.

2. Apply liquid gasket to the oil pressure switch

threads, then install the oil pressure switch.

NOTE: Using too much liquid gasket may cause
liquid gasket to enter the oil passage or the end of
the new oil pressure switch.

Oil Pressure Test

If the low oil pressure indicator stays on with the engine
running, check the engine oil level. If the oil level is
correct:

1. Remove the engine oil pressure switch, and install

an oil pressure gauge (A).

2. Start the engine. Shut it off immediately if the

gauge registers no oil pressure. Repair the problem
before continuing.

3. Allow the engine to reach operating temperature

(fan comes on at least twice). The pressure should
be:

4. If the oil pressure is NOT within specification,

inspect these items.

• Check the oil strainer for clogging.
• Check the oil pump (see page 8-12).

Number when rubber
seal is seated.

Number after tightening.

Oil filter wrench 07HAA-PJ70100

1. Remove the oil filter with the special tool.

2. Inspect the threads (A) and rubber seal (B) on the

new filter. Wipe off the seat on the engine block,
then apply a light coat of engine oil to the filter
rubber seal. Use only filters with a built-in bypass
system.

3. Install the oil filter by hand.

4. After the rubber seal seats, tighten the oil filter

clockwise with the special tool.

5. If four numbers or marks (1 to 4 or

)

are printed around the outside of the filter, use the
following procedure to tighten the filter.

• Spin the filter on until its seal lightly seats against

the block/oil cooler, and note which number or
mark is at the bottom.

• Tighten the filter by turning it clockwise three

numbers or marks from the one you noted. For
example, if number 2 is at the bottom when the
seal is seated, tighten the filter until the number 1
comes around the bottom.
