DTC P0530, sometimes indicated as P053000 is an OBD diagnostic trouble code indicating a generic fault with the vehicle powertrain (i.e. engine and gearbox). This code identifies an error with the engine idling stability causing a/c refrigerant pressure sensor "a" circuit.

The DTC P0530 code is set when the PCM detects a problem with the A/C refrigerant pressure sensor "A" circuit. This code can be caused by a number of things, including a bad sensor, a shorted or open circuit, a bad connection, or a problem with the PCM.
If the code is caused by a bad sensor, the sensor will need to be replaced. If the code is caused by a shorted or open circuit, the circuit will need to be repaired. If the code is caused by a bad connection, the connection will need to be repaired or replaced. If the code is caused by a problem with the PCM, the PCM will need to be replaced.
