Fuel Tank Differential Pressure Sensor.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.

(2) Plug the disconnected end of hose D.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(4) Remove the fuel cap.
(5) Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode for item 

52, Fuel Tank Differential Pressure Sensor.

• Output voltage should be between 1,500 to 3,500 mV.

(6) Connect the evaporative emission system pressure pump 

(Miller number 6872A) to the fuel tank filler tube by using 
fuel tank adapter (MLR-8382) and pressurize the fuel tank.

• The fuel tank pressure reading should increase.

(7) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position. Then 

disconnect scan tool MB991958.

(8) Remove the evaporative emission system pressure pump 

(Miller number 6872A) and the fuel tank adapter 
(MLR-8382), and reinstall the fuel cap.

(9) Connect hose D to the evaporative emission canister.
Q: Is the sensor operating properly?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. 

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting / 
Inspection Service Points 

− How to Cope with 

Intermittent Malfunctions

STEP 2. Check harness connector D-19 at fuel tank 
differential pressure sensor for damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Then go to Step 3 .
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 12 .

STEP 3. Measure the sensor supply voltage at fuel tank 
differential pressure sensor connector D-19 by 
backprobing.
(1) Do not disconnect the connector D-19.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 3 and ground by 

backprobing.

• Voltage should be between 4.9 and 5.1 volts.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the measured voltage between 4.9 and 5.1 volts?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Check harness connector D-19 at the fuel tank 
differential pressure sensor for damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to step 5.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 12.

STEP 5. Check for harness damage between fuel tank 
differential pressure sensor connector D-19 (terminal No. 
3) and ECM connector B-11 (terminal No. 114).
NOTE: Check harness after checking intermediate connector 
C-129. If intermediate connector is damaged, repair or replace 
it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 12.

Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 11.
NO :  Repair it. Then go to Step 12.

STEP 6. Measure the ground voltage at fuel tank 
differential pressure sensor connector D-19 by 
backprobing.
(1) Do not disconnect the connector D-19.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 2 and ground by 

backprobing.

• Voltage should be 0.5 volt or less.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the measured voltage 0.5 volt or less?

YES : Go to Step 9.
NO :  Go to Step 7.

STEP 7. Check harness connector B-11 at the ECM for 
damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 8.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 12.

STEP 8. Check for harness damage between fuel tank 
differential pressure sensor connector D-19 (terminal No. 
2) and ECM connector B-11 (terminal No. 113).
NOTE: Check harness after checking intermediate connector 
C-129. If intermediate connector is damaged, repair or replace 
it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 12.

Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?
