CHECKING THE FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR
Note. If diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) for the fuel pressure sensor or atmospheric pressure sensor are stored, these diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) must be fault-traced and remedied first.
HINT: The method below is used to check whether the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) was caused by a faulty fuel pressure sensor. This can be done by comparing the signal from the fuel pressure sensor (read off using VIDA) with the actual fuel pressure (read using a manometer connected to the wiring for the fuel injection system).
Scheme 67
Scheme 68
- Connect the pressure gauge: «FUEL PRESSURE GAUGE»(ref-520008-S06867843122012123100000) CAUTION: The pressure in the fuel injection system can reach approximately 650 kPa when this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored. Use an adapted manometer.
- Run the engine to operating temperature. Allow the engine to idle
- Air conditioning (A/C) off. Read off the relative fuel pressure. The relative fuel pressure is calculated from the fuel pressure sensor and the atmospheric pressure sensor signal (= absolute pressure minus atmospheric pressure). Check that the value on the manometer and the value displayed in VIDA are roughly the same. If the values are different, the circuit for the fuel pressure sensor is defective.
Is the fuel pressure sensor correct?
- YES Refer to «CHECKING COMPONENTS»(ref-500316-S38316754482012091100000)
- NO Refer to «CHECKING THE COMPONENT AND WIRING»(ref-500316-S24387805522012091100000)
CHECKING COMPONENTS
Check the connectors between the fuel pump (FP) control module and the fuel pump (FP). Check for contact resistance. Check for oxidation.
Remedy as necessary.
Try a new fuel pump (FP) control module if no fault is found during the above fault-tracing.

- Run the engine to operating temperature. Allow the engine to idle
- Air conditioning (A/C) off. Read off the relative fuel pressure. The relative fuel pressure is calculated from the fuel pressure sensor and the atmospheric pressure sensor signal (= absolute pressure minus atmospheric pressure). Check that the value on the manometer and the value displayed in VIDA are the same. If the values are different, this indicates incorrect function.
Is the function OK?
- YES VERIFIED: Troubleshooting has been completed.
- NO Refer to «INFORMATION»(ref-500316-S22440436262012091100000)
HINT: After carrying out the repair, check that the fault has been remedied.
Scheme 71
- Ignition off
- Reinstall the connectors, components etc.
- Engine idling
- Read off the fuel pressure and the fuel pump (FP) work load. The upper digital display and the graphic display (red font color) indicate the absolute fuel pressure, calculated from the fuel pressure sensor The center digital display (blue font color) indicates the current work load required for the fuel pump (FP) to maintain the present fuel pressure. (Normal value 50 % ±10 %.) The lower digital display indicates the relative fuel pressure (white font color), calculated from the fuel pressure sensor and the atmospheric pressure sensor (= absolute pressure minus atmospheric pressure). If a manometer is connected during the test, it should indicate this pressure. Check the fuel pressure value together with the value for the fuel pump (FP) work load. The requested pressure is 380 kPa at idling speed. A (relative) fuel pressure lower than 380 kPa together with a high fuel pump (FP) work load indicates a fault in pressure regulation.
Is the signal within its permitted range?
- YES VERIFIED: Troubleshooting has been completed.
- NO Refer to «INFORMATION»(ref-500316-S22440436262012091100000)

Note. If diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) for the fuel pressure sensor or atmospheric pressure sensor are stored, these diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) must be fault-traced and remedied first.
HINT: The method below is used to check whether the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) was caused by a faulty fuel pressure sensor. This can be done by comparing the fuel pressure sensor signal (displayed in VIDA) with the actual fuel pressure (displayed on a manometer connected to the wiring for the fuel injection system).
Scheme 77
- Connect the pressure gauge: «FUEL PRESSURE GAUGE»(ref-520008-S06867843122012123100000) CAUTION: The pressure in the fuel injection system can reach approx. 800 kPa when this diagnostic trouble code is stored, use an adapted pressure gauge.
- Run the engine to operating temperature. Allow the engine to idle.
- Air conditioning (A/C) off. Read off the relative fuel pressure. The relative fuel pressure is calculated from the fuel pressure sensor and the atmospheric pressure sensor signal (= absolute pressure minus atmospheric pressure). Check that the value on the manometer and the value displayed in VIDA are roughly the same. If the values are different, the circuit for the fuel pressure sensor is defective.
Is the fuel pressure sensor correct?
- YES Refer to «CHECKING COMPONENTS»(ref-500316-S01920553322012091100000)

- Run the engine to operating temperature. Allow the engine to idle.
- air conditioning (A/C) off
- Read off the fuel pressure and the fuel pressure desired value.
- Start the quick test when the engine is running at idling. During the course of the quick test, the control module regulates the pressure for different target values in different steps (530, 490, 450, 410, 440, 490, 530 kPa). Each step takes 10 seconds. The test usually starts with the pressure momentarily going up to 650 kPa. NOTE: Because the by-pass valve in the fuel pump (FP) will be open at approximately 650 kPa, the pressure will not go higher than this. HINT: The illustration to the left shows an example of normal regulation. The upper digital display and the graphic display (red font color) indicate the absolute fuel pressure, calculated from the fuel pressure sensor The central digital display and the graphic display (blue font color) indicate the control module target value for the absolute fuel pressure The lower digital display indicates the relative fuel pressure (white font color), calculated from the fuel pressure sensor and the atmospheric pressure sensor (= absolute pressure minus atmospheric pressure). If a manometer is connected during the test, it must indicate this pressure. Check that the value for absolute fuel pressure is the same as the target value for absolute fuel pressure. If the values are not the same, this indicates a fault in the pressure regulation. The values may differ during the quick test when the target value is changed. This is due to sluggishness in the fuel regulation and is normal. In some cases, it can take up to 5 seconds before the fuel pressure reaches the target value for the fuel pressure.

- Start the quick test when the engine is running at idling. During the course of the quick test, the control module regulates the pressure for different target values in different steps (530, 490, 450, 410, 440, 490, 530 kPa). The test usually starts with the pressure momentarily going up to 650 kPa. NOTE: Because the by-pass valve in the fuel pump (FP) will be open at approximately 650 kPa, the pressure will not go higher than this. HINT: The illustration to the left shows an example of normal regulation. The upper digital display and the graphic display (red font color) indicate the absolute fuel pressure, calculated from the fuel pressure sensor The central digital display and the graphic display (blue font color) indicate the control module target value for the absolute fuel pressure The lower digital display indicates the relative fuel pressure (white font color), calculated from the fuel pressure sensor and the atmospheric pressure sensor (= absolute pressure minus atmospheric pressure). If a manometer is connected during the test, it must indicate this pressure. Check that the value for absolute fuel pressure is the same as the target value for absolute fuel pressure. If the values are not the same, this indicates a fault in the pressure regulation. The values may differ during the quick test when the target value is changed. This is due to sluggishness in the fuel regulation and is normal. In some cases, it can take up to 5 seconds before the fuel pressure reaches the target value for the fuel pressure.
