DTC P0191: 00 Fuel Pressure Sensor Circuit Range/Performance Problem: Notes

DTC P0191:00 DETECTION CONDITION AND POSSIBLE CAUSES (SKYACTIV-G 2.0, SKYACTIV-G 2.5)

DTC P0191:00  Fuel pressure sensor circuit range/performance problem 
DETECTION CONDITION 
  • The difference between the actual and target fuel pressure is equal to or more than the specification, even though the fuel pressure feedback amount is maintained low or high.

Diagnostic support note 
  • This is a continuous monitor (CCM).
  • The check engine light illuminates if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition during the first drive cycle.
  • FREEZE FRAME DATA (Mode 2)/Snapshot data is available.
  • DTC is stored in the PCM memory.
FAIL-SAFE FUNCTION 
  • Stops high pressure fuel pump control
  • Limits intake air amount
POSSIBLE CAUSE 
  • Air suction in fuel line due to fuel is runout
  • High pressure fuel pump connector or terminals malfunction
  • Fuel pressure sensor connector or terminals malfunction
  • PCM connector or terminals malfunction
  • Fuel pressure sensor malfunction
  • Insufficient fuel pressure (low pressure line)
  • Fuel injector malfunction
  • High pressure fuel pump malfunction
    • Relief valve (built-into high pressure fuel pump) malfunction
  • PCM malfunction
SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAM  Not applicable
CAUTION:
  • Verify the malfunction symptom according to not only the PID value but also the symptom troubleshooting.
