Information
Component Location

General Description
As inputted rail pressure sensor signal, ECM of Commom rail diesel engine controls Fuel pressure
regulator valve(intergrated with high press. pump) and rail pressure regulator valve(ntegrated with
common rail) in order to maintain optimum rail pressure according to current engine rpm and load.
However when the problem that leads rail pressure to out of target value intended by ECM occurs due
to mechanical or electronical reason, ECM shuts engine down and sets DTC by limiting fuel (stops
injector operation) in order to prevent engine from being controlled abnormally. "rail pressure
monitoring error" is the DTC which diagnose 1).supplying state of low pressure fuel and 2).mechanical
operating conditions of high pressure pump and 3). rail pressure regulator valve indirectly based on
RPS output voltage and RPS duty. thus, repair relavant to this DTC requires mechanics the total
understand of fuel system.
DTC Description
P0088 is set if measured rail pressure is higher than target rail pressure by more than 200bar when rail
pressure is regulated by Rail pressure regulator valve or rail pressure is above the max limiting value.
This code is due to 1)fuel more than target value supplied to common rail or 2)poor return of fuel
supplied to common rail or 3)short to high voltage line in fuel press. sensor.
DTC Detecting Condition
Item Detecting Condition Possible Cause
● Fuel metering unit(open
stuck)
● Rail pressure regulator
DTC Strategy ● Voltage monitoring valve(close stuck)
● Rail pressure sensor
(Output fixed at high
voltage line)
Enable
● Engine running
Conditions
● Rail pressure is above target rail pressure by more
