Circuit/System Testing

2006 Chevrolet Chevy Express G3500, Van Cargo, 4.8 VSECTION Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
IMPORTANT: Fuel pressure control will be disable if DTC P0087, P0088, P0912, or P0193 are set. Codes must be cleared to enable the device control.

P0191

  1. Turn OFF the ignition.
  2. Disconnect the ECM connector and the fuel pressure regulator connector.
  3. Test the fuel pressure regulator solenoid supply voltage circuit for a short to voltage.
  4. Disconnect the FRP sensor.
  5. Test the FRP signal circuit, the 5-volt reference circuit, and the low reference circuit for high resistance.
    • If all circuits test normal, replace the FRP sensor.

P0192

  1. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  2. Disconnect the FRP connector and observe the Actual Fuel Pressure parameter with a scan tool.
    • If fuel pressure is 0 MPa (0 psi), test the FRP sensor signal circuit for a short to ground or a faulty ECM.
    • If fuel pressure is 200 MPa (29,00 psi), replace the FRP sensor.

P0193

  1. Turn ON ignition, with the engine OFF.
  2. Disconnect the FRP sensor connector and probe the signal circuit with a test lamp connected to ground.
    • If the test lamp illuminates, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or a faulty ECM.
  3. Connect a DMM between the FRP 5-volt reference circuit and ground, and measure the voltage.
    • If the voltage is not 0.254-4.75 volts, test for an open in the 5-volt reference circuit or a faulty ECM.
  4. Connect a fused jumper between the FRP signal circuit and the low reference circuit and observe the actual fuel rail pressure parameter with a scan tool.
    • If fuel pressure goes to 0 MPa, replace the FRP sensor.
    • If fuel pressure does not go to 0 MPa, test the signal circuit and the low reference circuit for an open or a faulty ECM.

When to See a Mechanic

Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:

  • β€’ You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
  • β€’ Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
  • β€’ The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
  • β€’ You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
  • β€’ You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
