Toyota Avalon Service & Repair Manual: Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor "A" Circuit Short to Ground (P019011)

DESCRIPTION

The fuel pressure sensor (for high pressure side) is installed on the fuel delivery pipe (for high pressure side). The fuel pressure sensor (for high pressure side) changes the fuel pressure for high pressure side into an electrical signal and sends the signal to the ECM. Then the ECM controls the pump discharge using this feedback to maintain the fuel's target pressure between 2 and 25 MPa (20 and 255 kgf/cm2).

HINT:

When this DTC is output, check the fuel pressure (for high pressure side) in the Data List. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Fuel Pressure (High).

If the Data List values is normal it may be due to a temporary recovery from the malfunction condition. Check for intermittent problems.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

This DTC is stored if the fuel pressure sensor (for high pressure side) output voltage is out of the standard range due to an open or short in the sensor circuit.

Example:

If the fuel pressure sensor (for high pressure side) output voltage is less than 0.2933 V for 3 seconds or more, the ECM store this DTC.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

HINT:

• After repair has been completed, clear the DTC and then check that the vehicle has returned to normal by performing the following All Readiness check procedure.

• When clearing the permanent DTCs, refer to the "CLEAR PERMANENT DTC" procedure.

1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
3. Turn the Techstream on.
4. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
5. Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
6. Start the engine [A].
7. Idle the engine for 10 seconds [B].
8. Turn the Techstream on
9. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes [C].
10. Read the pending DTCs.

    HINT:

    • If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
    • If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.
11. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.
12. Input the DTC: P019011.
13. Check the DTC judgment result.

    Techstream Display	Description
    NORMAL	DTC judgment completed System normal
    ABNORMAL	DTC judgment completed System abnormal
    INCOMPLETE	DTC judgment not completed Perform driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions

    HINT:

    • If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
    • If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
    • If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE, perform steps [B] through [C] again.
    • [A] to [C]: Normal judgment procedure.

      The normal judgment procedure is used to complete DTC judgment and also used when clearing permanent DTCs.

    • When clearing the permanent DTCs, do not disconnect the cable from the battery terminal or attempt to clear the DTCs during this procedure, as doing so will clear the universal trip and normal judgment histories.

WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

HINT:

Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

PROCEDURE

HINT:

Make sure that the connector is properly connected. If it is not, securely connect it and check for DTCs again.

(a) Disconnect the fuel pressure sensor (for high pressure side) connector.

(b) Turn the engine switch on (IG).

(c) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Voltage:

(d) Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.

(e) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

HINT:

Perform "Inspection After Repair" after replacing the fuel pressure sensor (for high pressure side).
