POSSIBLE CAUSE 
  • Fuel tank pressure sensor malfunction
  • Connector or terminal malfunction
  • Open circuit between fuel tank pressure sensor terminal A and PCM terminal 1AB
  • Open circuit between fuel tank pressure sensor terminal B and PCM terminal 1 AL
  • Short to the constant voltage supply circuit between fuel tank pressure sensor terminal A and PCM terminal 1AB
