Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING)



Diagnostic Test

1. DTC IS ACTIVE

NOTE: If any Sensor Reference or Sensor Supply voltage DTCs are present, perform the applicable diagnostic procedure before continuing with this test.


Ignition on, engine not running.
With the scan tool, Clear DTCs in the Engine Control Module (ECM).
Monitor the scan tool for at least two minutes.
Cycle the ignition key off and on several times, leaving the ignition on for at least 10 seconds at a time.
Start the engine.
Allow the engine to reach normal operating temperature.
With the scan tool, select View DTCs.

Is the status Active for this DTC?

Yes


No

2. (K350) FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR 5 VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT VOLTAGE



Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Fuel Pressure Sensor harness connector.
Turn the ignition on.
Measure the voltage of the (K350) Fuel Pressure Sensor 5 Volt Supply circuit in the Fuel Pressure Sensor harness connector.

Is the voltage above 4.5 volts?

Yes


No

3. (K350) FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR 5 VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND



Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.
Measure the resistance between ground and the (K350) Fuel Pressure Sensor 5 Volt Supply circuit in the Fuel Pressure Sensor harness connector.

Is the resistance above 1000 ohms?

Yes


No

4. (K350) FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR 5 VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT SHORTED TO (K359) FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT



Measure the resistance between the (K350) Fuel Pressure Sensor 5 Volt Supply circuit and the (K359) Fuel Pressure Sensor Ground circuit in the Fuel Pressure Sensor harness connector.

Is the resistance above 1000 ohms?

Yes


No

5. (K350) FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR 5 VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE



Measure the resistance of the (K350) Fuel Pressure Sensor 5 Volt Supply circuit between the Fuel Pressure Sensor harness connector and the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.

Is the resistance below 10.0 ohms?

Yes


No

6. FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR

With the scan tool, Clear DTCs.
With the scan tool, select View DTCs.

NOTE: The scan tool should display a Fuel Pressure Sensor high voltage or open DTC with the Fuel Pressure Sensor connector disconnected.



Does the scan tool display the DTC(s) as described above?

Yes


No

7. (K181) FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND



Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.
Measure the resistance between ground and the (K181) Fuel Pressure Sensor Signal circuit in the Fuel Pressure Sensor harness connector.

Is the resistance above 1000 ohms?

Yes


No

8. (K181) FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO (K359) FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT



Measure the resistance between the (K181) Fuel Pressure Sensor Signal circuit and the (K359) Fuel Pressure Sensor Ground circuit in the Fuel Pressure Sensor harness connector.

Is the resistance above 1000 ohms?

Yes


No

9. (K181) FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE



Measure the resistance of the (K181) Fuel Pressure Sensor Signal circuit between the Fuel Pressure Sensor harness connector and the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.

Is the resistance below 10.0 ohms?

Yes


No

10. ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM)

Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the Fuel Pressure Sensor and the Engine Control Module (ECM).
Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires.
Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals.
Monitor the scan tool data relative to this circuit and wiggle test the wiring and connectors.
Look for the data to change or for the DTC to reset during the wiggle test.
Refer to any Technical Service Bulletins that may apply.

Were any problems found?

Yes


No
