- Scanned vehicle found P0300 random misfire P0301 misfire cylinder one. P0302 misfire cylinder 2 P0087 fuel rail pressure too low. P00c6 fuel rail pressure too low cranking. P0316 misfire in first 1000 revolutions. Low fuel pressure can cause all of the above Mentioned codes. Monitoring pids while running desired fuel rail pressure is at least double than actual. Checked for low fuel pressure. Vehicle is commanding around 90 psi and the actual fuel low pressure is about 86. Well within the 22 psi specifications. Did a low side leak down test. 85 psi at shut off. After 15 minutes pressure only drops to 77psi. Minimum is 45 psi. Disconnected the hi pressure pump connected and checked resistance of the volume control on the hi pressure pump. Resistance .4 ohms. Within spec. When going through the diag tree I checked the ECM for continuity. I found oil in the pcm. Oil has seeped through the wiring harness from the oil pressure sensor into the ECM connector. It has contained & shorted out the ECM. We will need to replace the oil pressure sender and a ECM. Then we will retest to see if any of the codes come back.
- PCM/PROCESSOR ASSEMBLY – Remove & Replace – [Includes: Programming.] – [Includes: Component test.]
- OIL PRESSURE SENDER OR SWITCH – Remove & Replace – 1.6L Eng
- CLEAN OIL OUT OF WIRING HARNESS & BOTH CONNECTORS
- Retested for fuel pressure issue. And found that the hi pressure fuel pump is under performing. The fuel pressure never reaches 1500psi as need for initial start. The high pressure fuel pump needs to be replaced also.
- FUEL PUMP – Remove & Replace – FWD In Tank – [Includes: R&I Fuel Tank.] – [DOES NOT include test.]
