  • When DTC P0088 is stored, check the internal fuel pressure of the common rail assembly by entering the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / Common Rail Pressure.

    Reference
    Engine Speed Common Rail Pressure
    Idling Approximately 25000 to 45000 kPa
    3000 rpm (No engine load) Approximately 60000 to 95000 kPa

  • Check "Common Rail Pressure" and "Target Common Rail Pressure" in the freeze frame data.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM stores this DTC if the fuel pressure inside the common rail assembly is higher than 240000 kPa (2447 kgf/cm2, 34800 psi). This DTC indicates that: 1) the pre-stroke control valve may be stuck open, or 2) there may be a short in the pre-stroke control valve circuit.

If this DTC is stored, the ECM enters fail-safe mode and limits the engine power. The ECM continues operating in fail-safe mode until the ignition switch is turned off.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note

After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration (Click here ) and initialization Click here.

Tech Tips

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.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK FOR ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0088)


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.

    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.

    4. Read Current DTCs.


      Powertrain > Engine and ECT > Trouble Codes

      Result Proceed to
      P0088 is output A
      P0088 and "P0190, P0192 and/or P0193" are output B

      Tech Tips

      When there is an open circuit in the fuel pressure sensor circuit, the fuel pressure sensor outputs the maximum value. Therefore, P0088 may be stored together with DTCs which indicate common rail fuel pressure sensor circuit malfunctions.

      (ECM)

      Connect the positive (+) probe of an oscilloscope to the fuel pressure sensor input terminal of the ECM connector and the negative (-) probe to the body ground.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    3. Check for any noise in the waveform when vibration is applied to the wire harness and connectors between the fuel pressure sensor and ECM.

  4. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING GTS (ACTIVATE THE PRE-STROKE CONTROL VALVE)


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    3. Turn the GTS on.

    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Activate the Pre-stroke Control Valve


      Powertrain > Engine and ECT > Active Test
      Tester Display
      Activate the Pre-stroke Control Valve

    5. Perform the Active Test and check that operation sounds can be heard from the pre-stroke control valve.

      Tech Tips


      • Perform this procedure with the engine stopped and check the operation sounds from outside the vehicle.

      • Check in a quiet location with the hood opened, as the operation sound is difficult to hear.

      • In order to distinguish between the operation sounds of other actuators, use the GTS to turn the Active Test on and off several times, and check for operation sounds that are synchronized with the on and off operations.

      OK
      Operation sounds occur each time the Active Test is performed every 0.5 seconds.
