Circuit Description

The fuel pressure sensor (FPS) supplies the ECU with a variable voltage signal from 0.5 volt to 4.5 volts that changes relative to fuel pressure. The FPS voltage varies from about 0.5 volt at 0 kPa (0 psi) to 4.1 volts at 24 820 kPa (3,600 psi).

This is a type C DTC

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The following conditions will set the DTC:

    • The ignition is ON.
    • The FPS voltage is greater than 4.7 volts.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The ECU will set DTC 67 after two consecutive driving trips with the fault active.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

The ECU turns the MIL OFF after three consecutive driving trips without a fault condition present. A DTC will clear if no fault conditions have been detected for 40 warm-up cycles (coolant temperature has risen 40°C (72°F) from the start-up coolant temperature and the coolant temperature exceeds 70°C (160°F) during that same ignition cycle) or the code clearing procedure has been used.

Diagnostic Aids

When a DTC 67 sets, a short to power in the FPS circuit is indicated. Always inspect any circuitry that is suspected of causing an intermittent complaint for the following conditions:

    • Backed-out terminals
    • Improper mating
    • Broken locks
    • Improperly formed or damaged terminals
    • A poor terminal-to-wire connection
    • A damaged harness

Important: The fuel gauge will display the dormant fuel level for 10 seconds and then return to normal operation when the fuel gauge selector switch is depressed.
