Test Procedure

Step	Procedure	Result / Action to Take
1	PERFORM: Preliminary Check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to PRELIMINARY CHECK . -- Was Complaint verified?	-- YES: GO TO: Step 2 Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve - N276-, CHECKING => 2 . -- NO: GATHER more information from customer about the complaint.
2	IGNITION: OFF. DISCONNECT: Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve -N276- harness connector. CHECK: Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve -N276- component connector terminals 1 to 2 for resistance. SPECIFIED VALUE: 1.5 - 11 Ω (+/- 0.5 Ω @ approx. 20° C). -- Was Value obtained?	-- YES: GO TO: Step 3 Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve - N276-, CHECKING => 3 . -- NO: REPLACE: Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve -N276-. Refer to appropriate repair information. GO TO: Step 5 Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve - N276-, CHECKING => 5 .
3	IGNITION: ON. CHECK: Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve -N276- harness connector terminal 1 to ground for voltage. IGNITION: OFF. SPECIFIED VALUE: Battery voltage. -- Was Value obtained?	-- YES: GO TO: Step 4 Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve - N276-, CHECKING => 4 . -- NO: PERFORM: Visual Inspection of wiring and component. CHECK: Wiring for open, high resistance, short or harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals. REPAIR: Faulty wiring or connector. GO TO: Step 5 Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve - N276-, CHECKING => 5 .
4	REMOVE: Engine Control Module - J623-. Refer to appropriate repair information. CHECK: Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve -N276- harness connector terminal 2 to the Engine Control Module - J623- harness connector T60 / 19 for resistance. SPECIFIED VALUE: 0.5 Ω (± 0.3 Ω). -- Was Value obtained?	-- YES: TIP: The Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve -N276- may fail under loaded operation; please swap a known good Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve -N276- prior to continuing to the next step. GO TO: Step 5 Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve - N276-, CHECKING => 5 . -- NO: PERFORM: Visual Inspection of wiring and component. CHECK: Wiring for open, high resistance, short or harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals. REPAIR: Faulty wiring or connector. GO TO: Step 5 Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve - N276-, CHECKING => 5 .
5	Final Procedure Perform a road test to verify repair. -- Does the original DTC return?	-- YES: CHECK: Engine Control Module -J623- harness connector for any damaged, pushed-out pins. REPAIR: As necessary. If all electrical connections are OK: REPLACE: Engine Control Module -J623-. Refer to appropriate repair information. Clear the DTC's. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 04 - ERASE DTC MEMORY . Repair is complete. Generate Readiness Code. Refer to READINESS CODE . Return vehicle to Customer. -- NO: Perform the diagnostic procedure for any DTC's. If no DTC's return, the repair is complete. Return vehicle to customer.
