P0190 - FUEL RAIL PRESSURE SENSOR A CIRCUIT

Description:  The comprehensive component monitor (CCM) monitors the fuel rail pressure (FRP) sensor to the powertrain control module (PCM) for VREF voltage. The test fails when the VREF voltage from the PCM drops to a voltage less than a minimum calibrated value.
Possible Causes: 
  • VREF open in harness
  • VREF open in sensor
  • Vacuum leaks
Diagnostic Aids:  Verify a VREF voltage between 4 and 6 volts.
