Note

P008B00

Low Pressure Fuel System Pressure - Too High

Actual fuel pressure (for low pressure side) value higher than target fuel pressure (for low pressure side) by threshold or more (1 trip detection logic).

  • Fuel pump control ECU assembly
  • Fuel pressure sensor (for low pressure side)
  • ECM

Does not come on

DTC stored

SAE Code: P008B

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

If the fuel pressure (for low pressure side) increases despite a decrease request signal being sent to the fuel pump control ECU assembly by the ECM, the ECM will store this DTC.

MONITOR STRATEGY

Frequency of Operation

Continuous

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

  1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
  2. Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.
  3. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
  4. Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
  5. Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on [A].
  6. Start the engine and warm it up [B].
  7. Drive the vehicle for 15 minutes or more [C].

    CAUTION:

    When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.

  8. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes [D].
  9. 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.
  10. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.
  11. Input the DTC: P008B00.
  12. 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

    N/A

    • Unable to perform DTC judgment
    • Number of DTCs which do not fulfill DTC preconditions has reached ECU memory limit

    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 or N/A, perform steps [B] through [D] again.

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

1.

CHECK OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P008B00)

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

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

(c) Turn the Techstream on.

(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.

(e) Read the DTCs.

Powertrain > Engine > Trouble Codes

Result

Proceed to

DTC P008B00 is output

A

DTC P008B00 and other DTCs are output

B

HINT:

If any DTCs other than P008B00 are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.

2.

READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (FUEL PRESSURE (LOW) / FUEL PRESSURE 2)

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

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

(c) Turn the Techstream on.

(d) Start the engine.

(e) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Fuel Pressure (Low) / Fuel Pressure 2.

Powertrain > Engine > Data List

Tester Display

Fuel Pressure (Low) / Fuel Pressure 2

(f) Record the Fuel Pressure (Low) / Fuel Pressure 2 value.

(g) Turn the engine switch off.

(h) Discharge the fuel pressure.

HINT:

DTCs may be stored during this inspection. Check for DTCs and clear them using the Techstream.

(1) Remove the FUEL PMP fuse from the engine room relay block and junction block assembly.

(2) Start the engine.

(3) After the engine has stopped on its own, turn the engine switch off.

(4) Crank the engine again and make sure that the engine does not start.

(5) Install the FUEL PMP fuse.

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

(j) Turn the Techstream on.

(k) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Fuel Pressure (Low) / Fuel Pressure 2.

Powertrain > Engine > Data List

Tester Display

Fuel Pressure (Low) / Fuel Pressure 2

(l) Compare the Fuel Pressure (Low) / Fuel Pressure 2 value recorded with the engine running to the Fuel Pressure (Low) / Fuel Pressure 2 value currently shown on the Techstream.

Result

Proceed to

Fuel Pressure (Low) / Fuel Pressure 2 value drops

A

Fuel Pressure (Low) / Fuel Pressure 2 value is maintained

B

HINT:

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

3.

PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (CONTROL THE FUEL PUMP DUTY RATIO)

(a) Install the fuel pressure gauge (for low pressure line of low pressure side).

Click here

(b) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

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

(d) Turn the Techstream on.

(e) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Control the Fuel Pump Duty Ratio / Data List / Fuel Pressure (Low) / Fuel Pressure 2.

Powertrain > Engine > Active Test

Active Test Display
