Sensor, Fuel Pressure: Removal: Removal
High pressure fuel spray can cause severe cuts, and is extremely flammable. Before opening any part of the high pressure fuel system, wait for a minimum of 30 seconds after turning off the engine to allow pressure to bleed down from the high pressure side of the fuel system. Otherwise severe personal injury can result when the high pressure fuel system is opened.
No sparks, open flames or smoking. Risk of poisoning from inhaling and swallowing fuel. Risk of injury to eyes and skin from contact with fuel. Pour fuels only into suitable and appropriately marked containers. Wear protective clothing.
When working with parts on the high side of the fuel injection system such as the fuel rail and high pressure injector lines, slowly loosen the part to allow any residual pressure to bleed down from the high pressure side of the system.
The fuel rail pressure sensor is not a serviceable item. If diagnosis has lead you to replace the fuel rail pressure sensor, then a new fuel rail has to be installed.
