Theory of Operation

The Electronic Control Module (ECM) provides a 5-volt supply to the Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor (FPS). The ECM also provides a ground on the sensor return circuit. The Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor provides a signal to the ECM on the Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Signal circuit. This sensor signal voltage changes based on the pressure in the fuel rail. The ECM will detect a low signal voltage at low rail pressures. The ECM will detect a high signal voltage during high rail pressure conditions. The ECM will light the MIL lamp immediately after the diagnostic runs and fails. During this time the customer may experience a power and or speed derate. The ECM will turn off the MIL light after the diagnostic runs and passes in 4 consecutive drive cycles.

- When Monitored:
With the ignition on and battery voltage greater than 10.4 volts.

- Set Condition:
The circuit voltage to the Electronic Control Module (ECM) is above a calibrated threshold for a certain period of time.





Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting Procedure.
