Fuel Pressure Sensor, Checking
Fuel Pressure Sensor, Checking
Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
• Multimeter.
• Wiring diagram.
Test requirements
• The Fuel Pump (FP) Control Module (J538) OK.
• The Engine Control Module (ECM) ( J623) fuses OK.
• The fuel filter OK.
• The battery voltage at least 12.5 V.
• All electrical consumers switched off (radiator fan must NOT run during test).
• A/C switched off.
• The fuel tank at least 1/4 filled.
• The ignition switched off.
Procedure
- Remove the rear engine cover - arrows -.
Checking voltage
- Disconnect the 14 pin electrical harness connector - 3 - on the left rear side of the engine.
- Switch the ignition on.
- Using a Multimeter, check the Fuel Pressure Sensor (G247) for voltage at the 14 pin electrical harness connector.
- Switch the ignition off.
If the specified values are obtained:
- Replace the Fuel Pressure Sensor (G247).
If the specified values are not obtained:
Checking wiring
If the manufacturers test box is being used. Perform the following step.
- Install the test box. Refer to Fuel Injection and Ignition Repair Information.
If the manufacturers test box is not being used. Perform the following step.
- Remove the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623 ). Refer to => [ ECM, Removing and Installing ] ECM, Removing and Installing.
- Using a Multimeter, check the Fuel Pressure Sensor (G247) electrical harness connector terminals to the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623) electrical harness connector T60 terminals for an open circuit.
Specified value: 1.5 ohms Max.
If the specification is not obtained:
- Check the wiring for a short circuit to each other, Battery (+), and Ground (GND).
- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, lose or broken terminals.
- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.
If no malfunction is detected in the wiring:
- Replace the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623 ). Refer to => [ ECM, Removing and Installing ] ECM, Removing and Installing.
- Install the rear engine cover - arrows -.
Final procedures
After repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:
1. Check the DTC memory. => [ Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory.
2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory.
3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. => [ Readiness Code ] Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes.
- End of diagnosis.
