Circuit/System Description
|
The engine control module (ECM) uses commanded fuel pump flow to determine a desired fuel rail pressure. The ECM monitors fuel rail pressure with the fuel rail pressure sensor. The Fuel Pressure Regulator Solenoid 1 is used to control the fuel pressure at the fuel rail. The Fuel Pressure Regulator Solenoid 1 is pulse width modulated (PWM). The ECM supplies the voltage directly to the Fuel Pressure Regulator Solenoid 1. The ECM controls the solenoid by grounding the control circuit with a solid state device called a driver.
Conditions for Running the DTC
|
•
|
The DTCs run continuously when the above conditions are met.
|
Conditions for Setting the DTC
|
P0087 51, P0087 53 and P0087 55
The ECM detects that the rail pressure is below the minimum threshold.
P0088 51, P0088 52, P0088 58, P0088 59, P0088 5A and P0088 5D
The ECM detects that the rail pressure exceeds the maximum positive deviation of rail pressure.
P0088 53
The ECM detects that the rail pressure exceeds the minimum rail pressure.
P0088 54, P0088 57
The ECM detects that the rail pressure exceeds the maximum rail pressure.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
|
DTCs P0087 51, P0087 53, P0087 55, P0088 51, P0088 52, P0088 58, P0088 59, P0088 5A, P0088 5D, P0088 53, P0088 54, and P0088 57 are Type A DTCs.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
|
DTCs P0087 51, P0087 53, P0087 55, P0088 51, P0088 52, P0088 58, P0088 59, P0088 5A, P0088 5D, P0088 53, P0088 54, and P0088 57 are Type A DTCs.
•
|
A restricted fuel supply line, a leakage in the high pressure section, too much or too little fuel in the low pressure line may cause DTCs to set. When ambient temperatures are below 0°C (32°F), the fuel tank pickup screen may be iced over from water in the fuel tank.
|
•
|
High Resistance in either circuit of the Fuel Pressure Regulator 1 will cause a DTC to set.
|
•
|
There are no driveability concerns associated with the fuel rail pressure regulator unless a DTC is present. One of the causes of these DTCs is a sticking fuel rail pressure regulator.
|
•
|
If the fuel system pressure is actually too high, a fuel knock and smoke condition will exist.

Circuit/System Verification
|
1.
|
Ignition ON, observe the DTC information with a scan tool. Verify that no other DTCs are set.
|
3.
|
Engine ON, observe the DTC's information parameter on the scan tool. DTCs P0087 or P0088 should not be set.
|
4.
|
Operate the vehicle within the conditions for running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.
|
1.
|
Ignition ON, command the fuel pump ON and OFF with a scan tool. Verify the fuel pump turns ON.
|
3.
|
Ignition OFF, install the fuel pressure gauge
EN-34730-1A
|
4.
|
Ignition ON, verify the fuel pressure is between 414-550 kPa (60-80 PSI).
|
6.
|
Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the Q45A Fuel Rail Pressure Regulator 1.
|
7.
|
Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition voltage circuit terminal 1 and ground.
|
8.
|
If the test lamp does not illuminate, repair the ignition voltage circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
|
9.
|
Ignition ON, test for 3-4 V between the control circuit terminal 2 and ground.
|
10.
|
If less than the specified range, test the control circuit for an open or a short to ground. If circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
|
11.
|
If greater than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
|
12.
|
Inspect and repair one of the following conditions:
|
|
•
|
Injection nozzle stuck in open position
|
|
•
|
Leakage in the fuel rail pressure regulator
|
|
•
|
Worn fuel injection pump
|
|
•
|
Fuel injection pump stuck open
|
|
•
|
Fuel rail pressure regulator stuck closed
|
|
•
|
Restricted fuel injector
|
13.
|
If all circuit tests normal, replace the Q45A Fuel Rail Pressure Regulator 1.
|
Perform the
Diagnostic Repair Verification
after completing the diagnostic procedure.
