Signal Too Low
Signal too low
Checking the status
- Start the engine and run it to normal operating temperature.
Check whether the fault is permanent or intermittent by reading off the signal from the fuel pressure sensor. With the engine at operating temperature and idling, the signal must be approximately 400 kPa.
The fault is permanent if the signal is incorrect. The fault is intermittent if the signal is correct.
