SMU - Revised DTC P0089 Table

Subject:Revised DTC P0089 Table

Models:2001 Chevrolet and GMC C/K Pickup Models (Silverado, Sierra)
with 6.6L Engine (VIN 1 -- RPO LB7)



This bulletin is being issued to revise the DTC P0089 table in the Engine Controls-6.6L sub-section of the Service Manual. Please replace the current information in the Service Manual with the following information.

The following information has been updated within SI. If you are using a paper version of this Service Manual, please make a reference to this bulletin on the affected page.

Test Description

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

  1. DTC P0090 is a current flow problem in the FRP regulator circuit. This incorrect current draw could lead to incorrect fuel pressure. This hardware problem should be diagnosed before the performance DTC is checked.

  1. Start and run the engine at 2,000 RPM.
  2. Observe the Actual Fuel Rail Pressure parameter and the Desired Fuel Rail Pressure parameter with a scan tool.

Is the Fuel Pressure difference more than the specified value?

20 MPa

Go to Step 11

Go to Step 6

  1. Start and idle the engine.
  2. Perform the following test at idle and at 2000 RPM:
  3. • Change the fuel pressure with a scan tool, incrementing through the entire fuel pressure range.
    • Observe the actual vs desired fuel pressures at each fuel pressure level.

Does the fuel pressure increment and stabilize through the entire fuel pressure range, with actual and desired fuel pressure within 2 MPa of each other at every fuel pressure?

  1. Disconnect the fuel rail pressure sensor.
  2. Observe the Actual Fuel Rail Pressure parameter with a scan tool.

Does the Actual Fuel Rail Pressure measure more than the specified value?

175 MPa

Go to Step 10

Go to Step 8
