Diagnostic help

Fault diagnosis concerns an electrical fault in the connecting leads or in the valve.

Functions in the diagnostic tool related to the fault:

-	Activate: Fuel Pressure Solenoid 1, Fuel Pressure Solenoid 2

See also the description of activations under "Activate" menu for more information.

Checking the wiring

Jiggle the wiring harness at several points and in different directions to detect intermittent breaks and short circuits. Observe the multimeter, diagnostic tool or test lamp during the check.
