DTC P0087 Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low (Figure OBD-19)

Figure OBD-19: Fuel Pressure Regulator and Fuel Pressure Sensor Circuits

Circuit Description

The engine control module (ECM) monitors fuel rail pressure (FRP) using the FRP sensor. If the sensor indicates a pressure less
than the commanded rail pressure plus a possible transitional overshoot, the ECM will set DTC P0087 for fuel rail pressure too
low.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The actual FRP is less than 0.0 MPa at 0-400 RPM. OR The actual FRP is less than 22.5 MPa at more than 600 RPM.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

• The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and fails.

• The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The control module stores this informa-

tion in the Freeze Frame/Failure Records.

• The ECM will limit fuel injection.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

• The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic

runs and does not fail.

• A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.

• A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related

diagnostic.

• Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool.

Diagnostic Aids

• A restricted fuel supply line may cause DTCs P0087 and P1093 to set at the same time. When ambient temperatures are be-

low 0°C (32°F), the fuel tank pickup screen may be iced over from water in the fuel tank.

• If power enhancing devices have been attached to the fuel rail pressure sensor circuits, this DTC may set and adversely ef-

fect the fuel system components.
