| Circuit | Description |
|---|---|
| Control - Terminal 1 | The output circuit is switched to 12 V to activate the component. The output is PWM controlled. |
| Control - Terminal 2 | The output circuit is switched to ground to activate the component. The output is PWM controlled. |
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| K20 Engine Control Module | The control module controls a series of actuators to ensure optimal engine performance. The control module does this by reading values from a variety of sensors, interprets the data and adjusts the engine actuators accordingly. |
| Q18 Fuel Pressure Regulator | Q18 is part of the component: G18 High Pressure Fuel Pump The fuel pressure regulator is a diaphragm relief valve. The diaphragm has fuel pressure on one side and regulator spring pressure on the other side. The fuel pressure regulator maintains the correct fuel pressure to the fuel injection system. The fuel pressure regulator delivers the needed fuel to the fuel rail. The unused fuel drops back into the reservoir of the fuel tank fuel pump module. The fuel pressure regulator maintains fuel pressure in the fuel feed pipe and the fuel rail in order to prevent long cranking times. |
The fuel pressure regulator is a part of the high pressure fuel pump. The fuel pressure regulator is the solenoid valve that controls the pressure in the fuel rail.
