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 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). This method assumes that the manometer for measuring fuel pressure is correctly calibrated.

  1. To connect the manometer, see «Fuel pressure gauge»(ref-461756-S20486606572012040200000)
  2. Run the engine to operating temperature. Allow the engine to idle
  3. air conditioning (A/C) off
  4. 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, the circuit for the fuel pressure sensor is defective.

Are the values equal?

  1. YES Refer to «Checking components»(ref-440276-S06236424812011121400000)
  2. NO Refer to «Checking components and wiring»(ref-440276-S12251627972011121400000)

Checking components

Check that the fuel level in the tank is not too low (almost no fuel).

Check the connectors between the pump control module and the fuel pump (FP). Check for contact resistance and oxidation.

Check the fuel lines and fuel filter for blockage and leaks.

Remedy as necessary.

Try a new fuel pump (FP) if no fault is found during the above fault-tracing.

HINT: The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) can also be caused by a defective pump control module.

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 checking whether the fuel pressure sensor signal (displayed in VIDA) is unstable, while the actual fuel pressure (displayed on a manometer connected to the wiring for the fuel injection system) is stable.

  1. To connect the manometer, see «Fuel pressure gauge»(ref-461756-S20486606572012040200000)
  2. Run the engine to operating temperature. Allow the engine to idle
  3. air conditioning (A/C) off
  4. 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 the value on the manometer and the value displayed in VIDA. If the fuel pressure sensor signal (displayed in VIDA) is unstable while the actual fuel pressure (displayed on the manometer connected to the wiring for the fuel injection system) is stable, this indicates that the circuit for the fuel pressure sensor is defective.

Are the values equal?

  1. YES Refer to «Checking components»(ref-440276-S26839136502011121400000)
  2. NO Refer to «Checking components and wiring»(ref-440276-S36554255942011121400000)

Check that the fuel level in the tank is not too low (almost no fuel).

Check the connectors between the pump control module and the fuel pump (FP). Check for contact resistance and oxidation.

Check the fuel lines and fuel filter for blockage and leaks.

Remedy as necessary.

Try a new fuel pump (FP) if no fault is found during the above fault-tracing.

HINT: The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) can also be caused by a defective pump control module.

Scheme 111
  1. Run the engine to operating temperature. Allow the engine to idle
  2. air conditioning (A/C) off
  3. Read off the fuel pressure and the fuel pressure desired value
  4. Start the quick test when the engine is running at idling. During the course of the quick test, the control module will steer the pressure to different target values in different stages (400, 500, 600 and finally 700 kPa), after which the pressure will be decreased in stages to the same pressure. Each stage lasts for approximately 5 seconds. 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: see scheme 376 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 lower digital display and the graphic display (yellow 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 should 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.

Checking regulation of the fuel pressure

WARNINGIn this test, the pressure in the fuel injection system will reach approximately 650 kPa. Disconnect the pressure gauge, as it is not intended to be used at such high pressures.

HINT: The method described below is used to check the control of the pressure in the fuel injection system by activating the quick test for the fuel pump (FP). If the pressure gauge for pressures up to 650 kPa is connected, the fuel pressure sensor can also be checked during this test.

Note. In this test, the complete flow capacity of the system is not tested.

  1. Disconnect the manometer unless it is adapted for pressures higher than 650 kPa
  2. Run the engine to operating temperature. Allow the engine to idle
  3. air conditioning (A/C) off
  4. Read off the fuel pressure and the fuel pressure desired value
  5. Start the quick test when the engine is running at idling.
