What is the Fuel Pressure Sensor all about?

In fuel-injected and diesel engines, fuel rail pressure sensors monitor the pressure in the fuel rail and report the reading to the engine control module. If any drop in pressure is detected, the engine control module compensates so that the fuel pump can restore the proper pressure. A valve controls this pressure; if the sensor ever fails, you should replace it. Sometimes, the entire fuel rail may need to be replaced, but the sensor is a weak point in the loop that is more prone to damage.

If the sensor is working properly, only the amount of fuel that is needed to make the engine run properly will be delivered. Minimal excess fuel will be circulated back to the tank in the fuel return line.

Keep in mind:

  • Other problems such as a faulty crank position sensor, cam position sensor, air flow sensor, boost pressure sensor, and temperature sensor can mimic symptoms of a bad fuel rail sensor.
  • Starting problems may have myriad causes that are entirely unrelated to sensors.

How it's done:

  • The fuel pressure is bled and battery is disconnected
  • The defective fuel rail sensor is removed
  • The new fuel rail sensor is installed
  • The battery is reconnected
  • The repair is verified and the vehicle road tested for proper operation

Our recommendation:

The fuel rail sensor is not part of a maintenance check, and is only addressed when it fails. If you suspect a problem with your fuel rail sensor or fuel delivery system, have one of our expert mechanics inspect and replace the fuel rail sensor if necessary.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Fuel Pressure Sensor?

  • Car won’t start
  • Car runs erratically
  • Check Engine light comes on and stays on

How important is this service?

If your fuel rail sensor is faulty, you may experience difficulty starting the engine or poor performance that could cause trouble in traffic. Have a failed fuel rail sensor replaced as soon as possible.

Ford Five Hundred V6-3.0L - AC is not working Inspection - El Mirage, Arizona
OMG! I am so impressed with YourMechanic and Peter P. It was so easy to get a quote, setup an appointment for the work to be done and to make payment. Peter P. is an awesome mechanic! I only paid a small fraction of the dealer's quote. Oh yea!

Ford Five Hundred V6-3.0L - Car is not starting - Apopka, Florida
I could tell he's a nice respectable guy, I had a car that would crank but not start. Unfortunately John's diagnosis of a new fuel pump was incorrect and I'm still left with a car that's not running and a question mark and broad array of possible reasons as to why it won't run. I was a bit suspicious after his diagnosis because he automatically assumed it was the fuel pump after narrowing the problem down to a fuel delivery issue, but not doing any type of test to insure that the pump was actually broken or working improperly, so I ended up wasting about $250 on parts and labor with that mess up, not to mention the $70 assessment fee. And not any fault of John's but scheduled an appointment with your mechanic to do the labor for the job and they waited until 30 minutes before appointment to call and tell me they can't do the service in a mobile setting because it would require the use of a lift (which they could have used a jack) and the appointment was booked three days ahead of time so plenty of time was offered to call and inform me instead of waste my time. I will no longer be using the your mechanic services and will just get a tow to a real shop from now on.
