Low Pressure Fuel System Sensor Circuit

General electrical fault on the low-pressure fuel system sensor — typically the lift-pump or pre-supply pressure sensor that monitors the rail feeding the high-pressure pump. With no valid reading, the ECM cannot verify that lift pressure is sufficient for HP-pump intake.

Affected components

  • Lp fuel pressure sensor
  • Sensor wiring

Common causes

  • High likelihood: Open or shorted wiring to the sensor
  • Medium likelihood: Failed sensor element

Diagnostic notes

  • The malfunction indicator lamp may illuminate
