Follow the troubleshooting procedure to identify the root cause of the fault. 

The following conditions must exist before any of the above codes will become active:

  • There are no active 3509 codes.

  • There are no active 168 codes.

The following background information is related to this procedure:

The 5 VDC sensor supply provides power to all 5 VDC sensors. The ECM supplies 5 VDC to terminal "1" of the fuel rail pressure sensor connector and to terminal "3" of the inlet manifold pressure sensor. The sensor common from the ECM connector goes to terminal "3" of the connector for the fuel rail pressure sensor. The sensor common from the ECM connector goes to terminal "2" of the inlet manifold pressure sensor.

Troubleshooting Test Steps  Values  Results 

1. Check for Diagnostic Codes

A. Establish communication between the electronic service tool and the ECM . Refer to Troubleshooting, "Electronic Service Tools", if necessary.

B. Turn the keyswitch to the ON position.

C. Look for a -3, or -4 active or logged code:
 

Diagnostic code
 

Result: A 157-X diagnostic code is active.

Proceed to Test Step 2.

Result: A 102-X diagnostic code is active.

Proceed to Test Step 4.

Result: A 108-X diagnostic code is active.

Contact the Dealer Solutions Network (DSN).
 

2. Check the Wiring between the Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor and the ECM for an Open Circuit

Refer to Illustration 1.

A. Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.

B. Disconnect the harness connector from the fuel rail pressure sensor.

C. Disconnect the engine interface connector.

D. Disconnect the J2 connector from the ECM.

E. Measure the resistance between the following pairs of pins:
