Pinpoint Test Dd: Fuel Pressure, Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) And Fuel Rail Pressure Temperature (FRPT) Sensors: Introduction
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 26 other vehicles, including the 2020 Lincoln Navigator, 2020 Lincoln Nautilus, 2020 Lincoln MKZ, 2020 Lincoln Corsair, and 2020 Lincoln Continental. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING:
Vehicle fuel systems are pressurized even when the engine is not running. To avoid fire or personal injury, disable the fuel delivery system and relieve fuel system pressure before removing any fuel system component. Refer to the fuel system information at the beginning of PINPOINT TEST HC.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury
NOTE:
With the engine running, the FRP PID value may be 48-70 kPa (7-10 psi) higher than a fuel pressure reading taken with a mechanical gauge.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
