DTC P0191: Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) Sensor Circuit Performance

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 32 other vehicles, including the 2005 Mercury Sable, 2005 Mercury Mountaineer, 2005 Mercury Monterey, 2005 Mercury Montego, and 2005 Mercury Mariner. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
P0191 - FUEL RAIL PRESSURE (FRP) SENSOR CIRCUIT PERFORMANCE

Description:  The comprehensive component monitor (CCM) checks the FRP for acceptable fuel pressure. The test fails when the fuel pressure falls below or exceeds a minimum/maximum calibrated value for a calibrated period of time.
Possible Causes: 
  • High fuel pressure
  • Low fuel pressure
  • Damaged FRP sensor
  • Excessive resistance in the circuit
  • Vacuum leaks
  • Low or no fuel
Diagnostic Aids:  A FRP PID value during key on engine running (KOER) of 138 kPa (20 psi) to 413 kPa (60 psi) is acceptable.
