Volvo All Engines (2004 Emissions) Fault Code: PID 94 FMI 7 Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor

Fault Condition: The Electronic Malfunction Lamp (EML) will illuminate when the Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor signal line voltage is less than 0.3 volts or greater than 4.75 volts. If the signal line voltage returns to between 0.3 volts and 4.75 volts the fault will become inactive.

Note: FMI 7 will set if the fuel pressure drops below:
14.5 psi (100 kPa) at 800 rpm
29 psi (200 kPa) at 1000 rpm
36.2 psi (250 kPa) at 1200 rpm
43.5 psi (300 kPa) at 1400 rpm
Nominal Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor Parameters: 0.3–4.75 Volts.

Possible repairs:

Turn the ignition key OFF first.

1) Disconnect Engine Management System (EMS) Module connectors B. Check for continuity between Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor harness connector pin 2 (signal line) and a good ground. If continuity exists, locate and repair the short circuit to ground.
2) Disconnect Engine Management System (EMS) Module connector B. Check for continuity between Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor harness connector pin 1 (reference voltage line) and EMS Module harness connector B pin 17.
If there is NO continuity, repair the open in the harness reference voltage line.
3) Disconnect the Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor. Disconnect Engine Management System (EMS) Module connectors A and B. Check for continuity between EMS Module harness connector B pin 16 (signal line) and all other pins in EMS Module harness connectors A and B. Visually check EMS Module connector B pin 16 for a short circuit. If continuity exists or if there is a visual short, repair the short circuit to the signal line. If there is NO continuity or visual short, replace the EMS Module.
4) Disconnect the Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor and the Engine Management System (EMS) Module connector B. Check for continuity between Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor harness connector pin 2 (signal line) and EMS Module harness connector B pin 16. If there is NO continuity, repair the open in the harness signal line.
5) Disconnect the Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor and the Engine Management System (EMS) Module connectors A and B. Check for continuity between EMS Module harness connector B pin 17 (reference voltage line) and all other pins in EMS Module harness connectors A and B. Visually check EMS Module connector B pin 17 for a short circuit. If continuity exists or if there is a visual short, repair the short circuit to the reference voltage line.
If there is NO continuity, visual short or loose, corroded and damaged terminals, replace the EMS Module.
6) Disconnect Engine Management System (EMS) Module connectors A and B. Disconnect the Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor. Check for continuity between EMS Module harness connector B pin 17 (reference voltage line) and all other pins in EMS Module harness connectors A and B. Visually check EMS Module connector B pin 17 for a short circuit. If continuity exists or if there is a visual short, repair the short circuit to the reference voltage line.
If there is NO continuity or visual short circuit, replace the EMS Module.
7) Visually inspect both sides of the Fuel Pressure Sensor connector for a repairable open. If any of the pins feel loose or an open is found, replace the Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor.
8) Disconnect Engine Management System (EMS) Module connectors A and B. Disconnect the Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor. Check for continuity between EMS Module harness connector B pin 18 (ground line) and all other pins in EMS Module harness connectors A and B. Visually check EMS Module connector B pin 18 for a short circuit. If continuity exists or if there is a visual short circuit, repair the short to the return line. If there is NO continuity or visual short circuit, replace the EMS Module.
9) Visually inspect both sides of EMS Module connector B pin 11 for a repairable open in the signal line. If a repairable open is found, repair or replace EMS Module harness connector B.
10) Remove the Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor. Connect the Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor to a regulated air supply with an accurate pressure gauge. Connect a jumper wire between Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor pin 1 and pin 1 on the
sensor harness connector. Connect a jumper wire between Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor pin 4 and a good ground. Turn the ignition key ON. Measure the voltage between Fuel Pressure (FP) Sensor pin 2 and a good ground at
various pressures between 0 psi and 101.5 psi.
11) Visually inspect both sides of EMS Module connector B pin 18 for a repairable open in the ground line. If a repairable open is found, repair or replace EMS Module harness connector B. If the pin is making good contact, replace the EMS Module.
