Note

P008B00

Low Pressure Fuel System Pressure - Too High

The actual fuel pressure (for low pressure side) value is higher than target fuel pressure (for low pressure side) by a certain amount or more (1 trip detection logic).
  • Fuel pump control ECU
  • No. 2 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 by the ECM, the ECM will store this DTC.

Continuous

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

  1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
  2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
  3. Turn the Techstream on.
  4. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
  5. Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
  6. Turn the ignition switch to ON [A].
  7. Turn the Techstream on.
  8. Start the engine and warm it up until the engine coolant temperature reaches 75°C (167°F) or higher [B].
  9. Drive the vehicle for 15 minutes or more [C].

    CAUTION:

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

  10. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes [D].
  11. 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.
  12. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.
  13. Input the DTC: P008B00.
  14. 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 [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 ignition switch to ON.

(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))

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Start the engine.

(c) Turn the Techstream on.

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

Powertrain > Engine > Data List

Tester Display

Fuel Pressure (Low)

(e) Record the Fuel Pressure (Low) value.

(f) Turn the ignition switch off.

(g) Discharge the fuel pressure.

HINT:

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

(1) Remove the EFI-MAIN NO. 2 fuse from the No.1 engine room relay block and No.1 junction block assembly.

(2) Start the engine.

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

HINT:

If the engine does not stop naturally, perform direct injection by racing the engine to reduce the fuel pressure [Fuel Pressure (High)] and stop the engine.

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

(5) Install the EFI-MAIN NO. 2 fuse.

(h) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

(i) Turn the Techstream on.

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

Powertrain > Engine > Data List

Tester Display

Fuel Pressure (Low)

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

Result

Proceed to

Fuel Pressure (Low) value drops

A

Fuel Pressure (Low) value is maintained

B

HINT:

Perform "Inspection After Repair" after replacing the No. 2 fuel pressure sensor (for low pressure side).
