Q: What does code P1607 mean?

Engine Oil Level Switch Circuit / Clutch Actuator. P1607 on GM vehicles indicates that the powertrain control module (PCM) has detected an abnormal signal from the engine oil level switch circuit or the clutch actuator circuit, depending on the vehicle's configuration. The PCM monitors the expected voltage or resistance range and sets this code when the signal falls outside that range for a calibrated time.
