Fault criteria:
Diagnostics compares requested and current fuel pressure. A DTC is generated if the current fuel pressure is higher/lower than the requested boost pressure. |
System reaction to a fault:
(See section Fault handling III, "Other emission-related components and functions" for more information.) |
Fault handling:
(See section Fault handling III, "Other emission-related components and functions" for more information.) |
Checking the wiring harness
Jiggle the wiring harness at several points to detect intermittent breaks or short circuits. Check also the connector for oxidation or loose pins.
