Read This First

This code identifies the failed diagnostic test or circuit family. Confirm the basic checks before replacing parts, and keep freeze-frame data until the repair is verified.

Common Checks

  • Compare commanded and actual fuel pressure on a scan tool.
  • Inspect the fuel-rail pressure sensor connector and vacuum reference where equipped.
  • Check fuel pump, filter, and wiring if pressure is low.

Common Repairs

  • Repair fuel-rail pressure sensor wiring or replace a failed sensor.
  • Repair weak fuel delivery if pressure testing confirms it.
  • Address vacuum-reference hose issues on systems that use them.
