Battery voltage sounds normal..

The 5 VDC Reff voltage comes from the PCM and is used to supply a reff voltage to all the sensors. If that reff voltage is not being correctly supplied, your sensors will not be accurate. Read the reff voltage at a few of the sensors and see what it reading. If its going LOW, there are several things that can cause it:



Make sure your battery connection/s are clean and tight and if it were me,,, I would clean the contacts in my ignition switch!!

So, I replaced the battery,load test showed it was bad.Installed new one ,took it for a drive and ECL code 1635 came back with low oil pressure.Drop to 5 lbs. then slowly climb back to normal pressure.Does this code originate from the ignition switch.
I ready to change the oil pressure switch,if you think thats causing code.
PLEASE HELP
