      1. Check for pressure in the fuel tube sub-assembly from the fuel line. Check that sounds of fuel flowing from the fuel tank sub-assembly can be heard. If no sounds can be heard, check the relay, fuel pump, ECM and wiring connectors.
    2. Inspect for fuel leaks.
      1. Check that there are no fuel leaks from the fuel system after doing any maintenance or repairs. If there is a fuel leak, repair or replace parts as necessary.
  2. CHECK FUEL PRESSURE 
    1. Discharge fuel system pressure.

      Refer to PRECAUTION [12/2019 - 10/2022] 

    2. Measure the battery voltage.

      Standard Voltage

    8. Wipe up any spilled fuel.
    9. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.

      Refer to PROCEDURE - Step 2

      NOTE:

      When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected.

      Refer to INITIALIZATION [12/2019 - 09/2020] , or refer to INITIALIZATION [09/2020 - 10/2021] , or refer to INITIALIZATION [10/2021 - 10/2022]

    10. Measure the fuel pressure.
      NOTE:

      Do not start the engine.

      Powertrain > Engine > Active Test 

      Tester Display
      Activate the Circuit Relay

      Standard Fuel Pressure

      196 to 833 kPa (2.0 to 8.5 kgf/cm2 , 28 to 121 psi)

      • If the fuel pressure is more than the standard, replace the fuel main valve assembly.
      • If the fuel pressure is less than the standard, check the fuel hoses and their connections, fuel pump and fuel main valve assembly.
    11. Disconnect the GTS from the DLC3.
    12. Start the engine.
    13. Measure the fuel pressure at idle.

      Standard Fuel Pressure

      196 to 833 kPa (2.0 to 8.5 kgf/cm2 , 28 to 121 psi)

      HINT: 

      Refer to Standard Idle Speed.

      Refer to PROCEDURE - Step 10

    14. Stop the engine.
    15. Check that the fuel pressure remains as specified for 5 minutes.

      Standard Fuel Pressure

      98 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm2 , 14.2 psi) or more

      If the result is not as specified, check the fuel pump, fuel main valve assembly and/or port fuel injector assemblies.

    16. After checking the fuel pressure, disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal and carefully remove SST (EFI fuel pressure gauge) to prevent fuel from spraying.
      NOTE:

      When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected.
