Fuel Pressure Release: Service and Repair
Releasing Pressure In High Pressure Area
Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
-
Assembly tool T10118
CAUTION: The fuel injection system is divided into a high pressure section (maximum approximately 120 bar) and a low pressure system
(approximately 6 bar).
Before opening high pressure area - e.g. removing high pressure pump, fuel rail, fuel injectors, fuel pipes or fuel pressure sensor G247 - fuel
pressure in high pressure area must be reduced to a residual pressure of approximately 6 bar. The procedure for this is as follows.
-
Remove electrical connector - 1 - from fuel pressure regulator valve N276 using the assembly tool T10118.
-
Allow engine to idle approximately 10 seconds.
NOTE:
-
When the fuel pressure regulator valve N276 electrical connector is disconnected during idle, pressure in high pressure area decreases to
approximately 6 bar.
-
After high pressure has been released, high pressure system must be opened, otherwise the pressure increases again due to the warming of the
fuel.
-
Switch off ignition.
CAUTION: Fuel lines are pressurized. Wear protective goggles and protective clothing to prevent injuries and contact with skin. Before
opening the high pressure system, place a cloth around the connection.
-
Place a clean cloth around the connection point and carefully open to release the residual pressure of approximately 6 bar. Escaping fuel must be
absorbed.
-
To conclude work, check DTC memory of Engine Control Module (ECM), erase all DTC entries which may have occurred from removing the
connector.
NOTE: If DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code "Guided Function".
