DTC P0192 Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Low Input
DTC P0193 Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit High Input
DESCRIPTION
The ECM monitors the internal fuel pressure of the common rail using the fuel pressure sensor, and controls the suction control valve to regulate the internal pressure to the target pressure. The pressure sensor is a semiconductor that varies electrical resistance when pressure is applied to its silicon chip. This sensor outputs the voltage in proportion to the internal fuel pressure.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
Under normal conditions, the internal fuel pressure of the common rail usually fluctuates 1 to 2 MPa (10 to 20 kgf/cm2, 145 to 290 psi) even when the driving conditions are constant. The internal fuel pressure is approximately 37 to 43 MPa (377 to 439 kgf/cm2, 5,365 to 6,235 psi) when idling, and it increases to approximately 60 to 66 MPa (612 to 673 kgf/cm2, 8,700 to 9,570 psi) when running the engine at 3,000 rpm. This DTC is set if there is no fluctuation of the fuel pressure.
If this DTC is set, the ECM enters fail-safe mode and limits engine power. The fail-safe mode continues until the engine switch is turned off.
These DTCs are set if the fuel pressure sensor output voltage is out of the standard range and an open or short malfunction of the sensor circuit has occurred.
If these DTCs are set, the ECM enters fail-safe mode and limits the engine power. The fail-safe mode continues until the engine switch is turned off.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- NOTICE:
- After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration and initialization .
- HINT:
1.READ VALUE OF FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR |
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Start the engine and turn the intelligent tester ON.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Fuel Press.
Read the values.
- OK:
- The internal fuel pressure of the common rail is within the specification below.
Engine Speed | Fuel Pressure |
Idling | Approximately 37 to 43 MPa |
3,000 rpm (No engine load) | Approximately 60 to 66 MPa |
|
| ||||
OK | |
2.CHECK IF DTC OUTPUT RECURS |
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch ON (IG) and turn the intelligent tester ON.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / DTC / Clear.
Clear the DTC(s).
Let the engine idle for 60 seconds, and then repeat quick engine RPM accelerations (to 2,500 rpm) for 30 seconds.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / DTC.
Read the DTC(s).
- Result:
Display (DTC Output) Proceed to P0087, P0190, P0192 or P0193 A No output B
