DTC P0191: Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor A Circuit Range/Performance

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 32 other vehicles, including the 2011 Mercury Milan, 2011 Mercury Mariner, 2011 Mercury Grand Marquis, 2011 Lincoln Town Car, and 2011 Lincoln Navigator L.

P0191 - FUEL RAIL PRESSURE SENSOR A CIRCUIT RANGE/PERFORMANCE

Description:  The comprehensive component monitor (CCM) checks the fuel rail pressure (FRP) sensor for an acceptable fuel pressure. The test fails when the difference between the fuel rail pressure requested by the PCM and the fuel rail pressure delivered exceeds 138 kPa (20 psi) for greater than 8 seconds.
Possible Causes: 
  • High fuel pressure
  • Low fuel pressure
  • Damaged FRP sensor
  • Excessive resistance in the circuit
  • Vacuum leaks
  • Low or no fuel
Diagnostic Aids:
