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.
