Toyota Avalon (XX50) 2019-2022 Service & Repair Manual: Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor (Low) Circuit Short to Ground (P107A11)

Toyota Avalon (XX50) 2019-2022 Service & Repair Manual / Engine / A25a-fxs Engine Control / Sfi System / Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor (Low) Circuit Short to Ground (P107A11)

DESCRIPTION

The fuel pressure sensor (for low pressure side) replaces the fuel pressure with electrical signals and outputs them to the ECM. The ECM controls the optimal fuel pressure for the operation conditions to reduce the fuel pump power consumption and improve fuel economy.

Note

P107A11

Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor (Low) Circuit Short to Ground

The fuel pressure sensor (for low pressure side) output voltage is less than 0.43 V for 3 seconds or more (1 trip detection logic).

  • Open or short in fuel pressure sensor (for low pressure side) circuit
  • Fuel pressure sensor (for low pressure side)
  • ECM

DTC stored

SAE Code: P107C

HINT:

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

DTC No.

Fuel Pressure (Low)

Malfunction

P107A11

Approximately 0 kPa

  • Short to ground in PFL circuit
  • Short in PFL to EPFL circuit
  • Open in VCPF circuit

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

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.

    Click here

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

    Click here

  1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
  2. Turn the power 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 power switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
  6. Turn the power switch on (IG).
  7. Turn the Techstream on.
  8. Put the engine in Inspection Mode (Maintenance Mode).

    Click here

  9. Start the engine.
  10. Idle the engine for 10 seconds or more [A].
  11. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes [B].
  12. 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.
  13. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.
  14. Input the DTC: P107A11.
  15. 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 is NORMAL, the system is normal.
    • If the judgment result is ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
    • If the judgment result is INCOMPLETE, perform steps [A] through [B] again.
    • [A] to [B]: 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 auxiliary battery terminal or attempt to clear the DTCs during this procedure, as doing so will clear the universal trip and normal judgment histories.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • Vehicle Control History may be stored in the hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly if the engine is malfunctioning. Certain vehicle condition information is recorded when Vehicle Control History is stored. Reading the vehicle conditions recorded in both the Freeze Frame Data and Vehicle Control History can be useful for troubleshooting.

    Click here

    (Select Powertrain in Health Check and then check the time stamp data.)

    Click here

  • If any "Engine Malfunction" Vehicle Control History item has been stored in the hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly, make sure to clear it. However, as all Vehicle Control History items are cleared simultaneously, if any Vehicle Control History items other than "Engine Malfunction" are stored, make sure to perform any troubleshooting for them before clearing Vehicle Control History.

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.
