Inspection

  1. Switch "OFF" the ignition and disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.
  2. Disconnect the fuel pressure regulator valve connector.
  3. Measure resistance between the fuel pressure regulator valve terminals 1 and 2.
  4. Check that the resistance is within the specification.

Specification: 0.52 +- 5 % Ω (20ºC(68ºF)

Removal

Warning

The fuel pressure regulator valve cannot be replaced as a unit. Replace it as high pressure fuel pump assembly.
