DESCRIPTION
A fuel pressure sensor, which is built into the injector assembly, converts the fuel pressure to an electrical signal which is sent to the ECM. Based on this signal, the ECM controls the fuel supply pump assembly and maintains the fuel pressure in the common rail assembly at the target pressure. A semiconductor is used in the fuel pressure sensor. The semiconductor changes its internal resistance value according to the fuel pressure, and as a result, the output voltage is proportional to the fuel pressure.DTC Detection Drive Pattern | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |

- HINT:
- Check Fuel Press and compare it to Target Common Rail Pressure in the Data List by entering the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Fuel Press, Target Common Rail Pressure. Under stable conditions, the difference between Fuel Press and Target Common Rail Pressure is 5000 kPa or less.
- For more information on the fuel pressure sensor and common rail system, refer to System Description (HILUX_TGN26 RM000000XSN02DX.html).
- If DTC P13A1, P13A2, P13A6, P13A7, P13AB, P13AC, P13B1, P13B2, P13E1, P13E2, P13E6 and/or P13E7 is stored, the following symptom may appear:
- Lack of power due to accelerator restriction performed by fail-safe function
- If DTC P13A1, P13A2, P13A6, P13A7, P13AB, P13AC, P13B1, P13B2, P13E1, P13E2, P13E6 and/or P13E7 is stored, "Fuel Press" always displays -53000 kPa or 255992 kPa.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION

- P13A1, P13A2, P13A6, P13A7, P13AB, P13AC, P13B1, P13B2, P13E1, P13E2, P13E6 and/or P13E7 (Open or short in fuel pressure sensor circuit):
If the fuel pressure sensor output voltage is outside of the standard range due to an open or short in the fuel pressure sensor circuit, DTCs are stored.
If a DTC is stored, the ECM enters fail-safe mode, and engine output is limited only if 2 or more circuits are malfunctioning. The ECM continues operating in fail-safe mode until the ignition switch is turned off.
The No. 1 injector assembly and No. 4 injector assembly have separate circuits inside the ECU and a fuel pressure sensor value is input to both the Main CPU and Sub CPU.- HINT:
- When there is an open circuit in EIJ or VIJ, DTC P13E2 and P13A2 are output at the same time.
- If only one of them are output, there may be an open in the internal circuit of the ECM.
WIRING DIAGRAM
Refer to DTC P0201 (HILUX_TGN26 RM00000187V043X_06.html).INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- NOTICE:
- After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration (HILUX_TGN26 RM0000012XK05AX.html) and initialization (HILUX_TGN26 RM000000TIN058X.html).
- HINT:
- Read freeze frame data using the GTS. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
1.CHECK FOR ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT |
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.
Read the DTCs.
Result Result Proceed to "Fuel pressure sensor circuit DTC" and "Injector Internal EEPROM Malfunction circuit DTC" are output*1 A Except above B - HINT:
- *: Fuel pressure sensor circuit DTC and Injector Internal EEPROM Malfunction circuit DTC:
Fuel pressure sensor circuit DTC: P13A3, P13A8, P13AD, P13B3.
Injector Internal EEPROM Malfunction circuit DTC: P168A, P168B, P168C, P168D. - When there is an injector internal EEPROM malfunction, fuel pressure sensor circuit range/performance and fuel temperature sensor circuit range/performance DTCs are output at the same time.
For example, when P168A is output, P13A3 and P13C3 are output together.

4.REPLACE INJECTOR ASSEMBLY (RELEVANT CYLINDER) |
Replace the injector assembly of the cylinder relevant to the DTC (HILUX_TGN26 RM0000044TN00FX.html).
- NOTICE:
- When replacing the injector assembly for a cylinder, always be sure to use a new injection pipe.
- Follow the procedure in the repair manual and temporarily install the injection pipes and nozzle leakage pipe, and then correctly position the injector assemblies. After that, tighten parts according to the torque specifications.
- If the installation procedure is not performed correctly, injector assemblies may become out of position, which may cause the injector assemblies to deteriorate, resulting in malfunctions.
- If an injector assembly deteriorates and malfunctions, other problems such as knocking, rough idle, etc. may occur.
- If an injector assembly becomes out of position, it is possible that the seal between the injector assembly and injection pipe may become incomplete, resulting in a fuel leak.
