The p06de code means the powertrain control module senses the oil pressure is above a calibrated MINImum threshold. A common reason is the oil pressure sensor getting stuck, which will require a replacement. It could also be due to low oil, in which You will need to do an oil change. When performing an oil change on the car You will first want to make sure that the vehicle has been parked and off for a couple of hours. Otherwise, the oil in the car will be very hot and You could burn Yourself. Find the oil pan in the engine compartment and locate the drain plug on the underside. Position a bucket under the plug and then remove it. This will allow the oil to drain into the pan. Let it do this until it stops dripping, which may take an hour or so. After it has finished dripping You can put the drain plug back on, then locate the intake port on the top of the oil pan. Using a funnel fill the oil pan to full, but make sure to not overfill. A little under is fine, but going over can lead to leaks and oil burn off. Once it is full close the port up, wipe up any spilt oil and You will be finished.

Could this possibly cause the car to stall out while in drive while stopped? At a red light for example

I got my oil pressure switch replaced and an oil change. My Engine light is now on reading this code and I just got it fixed. I’ve been left at a green light because she stalled and then wouldn’t turn on!! What’s wrong now?

The p06de code means the powertrain control module (pcm) senses the oil pressure is above a calibrated minimum threshold. A common reason is the oil pressure sensor stuck on. Check this part first.

The p06de code for the chevy malibu is the powertrain control module or the pcm which senses the oil pressure.
