DTC P0090
Circuit Description
The engine control module (ECM) supplies power and ground to the fuel rail pressure (FRP) regulator. The ECM monitors current on the circuits to
detect a failure. If the current is outside of the expected range, DTC P0090 will set. DTC Descriptor
This diagnostic supports the following DTC:
DTC P0090 Fuel Pressure Regulator Control Circuit Conditions for Running the DTC
^
The ignition is ON.
^
The commanded FRP regulator current is between 400-1,500 mA. Conditions for Setting the DTC
The FRP regulator circuit current is not between 50-1,600 mA. Action Take 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 information in the Freeze
Frame/Failure Records.
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
There are no driveability concerns associated with the FRP regulator unless a DTC is present. The most likely cause of this DTC is a sticking FRP
regulator.
If the fuel system pressure is actually too high, a fuel knock and smoke condition will exist.
