This may be due to a design change of the engine oil pressure (EOP) sensor, which is not backwards compatible. To correct the condition, transfer the sensor from the original engine or replace the EOP sensor with GN1Z-9D290-D.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2022/MC-10217832-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2022/MC-10217832-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10217832","components":[{"id":"engine","name":"Engine","parent":null}],"codes":["P0521"],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"FORD","model":"EXPLORER","year_from":2020,"year_to":2021,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2020_ford_explorer","2021_ford_explorer"]},{"make":"FORD","model":"F-150","year_from":2018,"year_to":2021,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2018_ford_f-150","2019_ford_f-150","2020_ford_f-150","2021_ford_f-150"]},{"make":"FORD","model":"TRANSIT","year_from":2020,"year_to":2021,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2020_ford_transit","2021_ford_transit"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
