    Engine Speed

    Fuel Press

    Idling

    Approximately 27000 to 45000 kPa

    3000 rpm (No engine load)

    Approximately 44000 to 78000 kPa

  • When there is an operating problem with the supply pump assembly (when Fuel Press is more than Target Common Rail Pressure due to a problem with the closing of the suction control valve), the values of Injection Pressure Correction and Target Pump SCV Current decrease.

  • Check "Fuel Press", "Target Common Rail Pressure", "Target Pump SCV Current" and "Pressure Discharge Valve" in the freeze frame data.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

P0088 (Internal fuel pressure too high):

The ECM stores this DTC if the fuel pressure inside the common rail assembly is higher than 220000 kPa (2243.3 kgf/cm2, 31911 psi). This DTC indicates that: 1) the suction control valve may be stuck open, or 2) there may be a short in the suction control valve circuit.

If this DTC is stored, the ECM enters fail-safe mode and limits the engine power. The fail-safe mode continues 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).

  • After replacing the suction control valve, the ECM needs initialization.

Tip:

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 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 the DTCs.

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR - ECM)

    Tip:

    If the MIL has illuminated before in the past, clear the DTC using the GTS before performing this inspection.

    1. Check it the MIL illuminates up when vibration is applied to the wire harness and connectors between the fuel pressure sensor and ECM.

  4. REPLACE SUCTION CONTROL VALVE

    1. Replace the suction control valve.

      Click here

      Tip:

      Before replacing the suction control valve, check that the wire harness between the suction control valve and ECM is not shorted to ground.

      When there is a malfunction in the wire harness, Target Pump SCV Current is outside the range of 923 to 1123 mA when idling, and outside the range of 1013 to 1212 mA when the engine is running at 2500 rpm without load.

      If there are no problems with the engine condition during idling, it is not necessary to perform the above wire harness inspection.

      When the wire harness between the suction control valve and ECM is not shorted to ground, it can be assumed that DTC P0088 was stored due to a malfunction in the operation of the suction control valve. Therefore, it is necessary to replace the suction control valve.
