Test procedure
- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Preliminary Check

Start diagnosis

Procedure







- Remove engine cover - arrows -.

Checking voltage







- Disconnect the electrical harness connector - 3 - for the Fuel Pressure Sensor G247.
- Switch the ignition on.







- Using a Multimeter check the Fuel Pressure Sensor G247 electrical harness connector for voltage.







- Switch the ignition off.

If specified value is obtained:
- Replace the Fuel Pressure Sensor G247: Engine Mechanical, Fuel Injection Ignition.

If the specified value was not obtained:

Checking wiring connections
If the manufacturers test box is being used. Perform the following step.
- Install the test box.

If the manufacturers test box is not being used. Perform the following step.
- Remove the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J623.







- Using the a Multimeter check the following wiring connection for an open circuit.

Specified resistance 1.5 Ohms max.

If the specification is not obtained:
- Check the wiring for a short circuit to Battery positive (+) or an open circuit.
- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.
- Erase the DTC memory. Diagnostic Modes 01 - 09.
- Perform a road test to verify repair.

If the DTC does not return:
Repair complete, Generate readiness code. Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes
- End diagnosis.

If the DTC does return and no malfunction is detected in the wiring and the voltage supply was OK:
- Replace the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J623.
- Assembly is performed in the reverse of the removal.

Final procedures
After repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the mentioned sequence:

1. Check the DTC memory. Diagnostic Modes 01 - 09
2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Diagnostic Modes 01 - 09
3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes

End of Diagnosis
