Checking the diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs)
Check if there are diagnostic trouble codes stored for fuel pressure sensor or ambient pressure sensor, in that case troubleshoot and fix these first.
Do you want to continue with this procedure?
Yes - Checking the fuel pressure sensor
No - ANOTHER TEST
-------------------------------------------------
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 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.
- To connect the manometer, see Fuel pressure gauge Fuel 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 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?
Yes - Checking components
No - Checking components and wiring
-------------------------------------------------
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.

Hint: After carrying out the repair, check that the fault has been remedied.
- Connect the manometer, see Fuel pressure gauge Fuel 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 the same. If the values are different, this indicates incorrect function.
Is the function OK?
Yes - VERIFIED
No - VERIFICATION FAILED

Fault-tracing information
The fault should have been detected and remedied. As this is not the case fault-tracing has failed.
Exit fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) or make another attempt.
Do you want to exit fault-tracing?
