Fuel System

Fuel System

There is a risk of injury because the fuel is under very high pressure.

• For safety reasons, if the battery is not disconnected, the fuel pump control module (J538) fuse must be removed before opening the fuel system. Otherwise, the fuel pump will be activated by the driver door contact switch.

• Fuel system is under pressure! Fuel pressure must be reduced to a residual pressure before opening the high pressure area of the injection system. Refer to => [ Releasing Pressure in High Pressure Area ] Description and Operation.

• After reducing the high pressure, connection should be opened immediately. To do this, place a cloth around the connection to reduce residual pressure (approximately 7 bar).

• By removing the fuse - in the fuse panel in the instrument panel on the driver side -, the voltage supply to terminal 30 for the fuel pump control module is interrupted.
