(3) DTC Check
If several DTCs are output simultaneously, check the electric wiring for open or short circuit.
Check the low pressure fuel system and fuel filter and confirm that there are no abnormalities. Carry
out the high pressure fuel system check.

(5) High Pressure System Pressure Test
Fuel rail pressure test
Disconnect the fuel rail pressure sensor
connector and then IMV connector. 1.
Connect the pressure tester to the fuel rail
pressure sensor connector. 2.
Crank the engine 2 times for 5 seconds. 3.
Read the highest pressure value displayed
on the tester display.
If the highest pressure value is 1,050 bar or
less, refer to the section "Fuel System
Check Process". -

How To Use Pressure Tester
Press the "TEST" button on the tester to
check if the message "TEST?" is displayed.
If the button is pressed again at 4 seconds
after starting engine cranking, the highest
pressure is displayed on the tester. 1.
2.
The fuel rail pressure value can be checked using a diagnostic device.

(6) Low Pressure System Pressure Test
Inspection procedure
All wirings/connectors and fuel lines should be
connected and the engine should work
properly.
Prepare a special tool for low pressure test
and clean it thoroughly to prevent foreign
materials from entering. 1.
2.
Disconnect the key connector for fuel filter connection, and connect both connectors to the fuel filter
and hose. 3.
Start the engine and check visually for clogged low pressure fuel system, excessive air or air entry.
If the fuel flow is not sufficient or air is in the fuel, repair the leak area. 4.

Static test for backleak of injector
Disconnect the injector return hose and cover
the openings with caps shaped screw (included
in the special tool). 1.
Connect the hose of the container for
measuring backleak to the return nipple of the
injector.
(prevent air entry to the low pressure line) 2.
Disconnect the IMV connector of the high
pressure pump and then fuel pressure
sensor connector. 3.
The connector of the injector can be easily
contaminated. Always keep it clean.
Crank the engine for 5 seconds.
Check the flow volume of injector backleak. 4.
5.
If the value is out of the specified range,
replace the injector.

Pressure leak test in fuel system with scan tool
When the dynamic test for injector backleak is performed, this test should be done together with it.
However, you can check the pressure leak from the fuel system only with this test.
and components in fuel system with scan tool.
Perform the diagnostic test as follows: 1.
2.
3.
Select the "Vehicle Model" and go to "Diagnosis Mode".
Select "Pressure Leak Test in Fuel System" in "Diagnosis Menu".
If the conditions are OK, press "Start". -
-
-
The pressure leak test procedure is performed in 4 cycles. The engine speed goes up to
3,500 rpm and down again four times for 18 seconds. If the system is OK, the "System OK"
message will be displayed.

HP pump pressure test
Prepare a special tool for high pressure test
and clean it thoroughly to prevent foreign
materials from entering. 1.
Disconnect the high pressure fuel supply pipe
on the HP pump and install the close rail in the
tool kit. 2.
Connect the other end of the close rail to the
fuel rail for test 3.
Disconnect the return hose for HP pump and
connect the clear hose and connect its the
other end to the return port of the fuel rail for
test. 4.
Connect the digital tester connector to the
sensor connector of the fuel rail for test.
Crank the engine 2 times for 5 seconds after
removing the IMV connector and fuel rail
pressure sensor connector.
Read the pressure value displayed on the
tester display is within the specified range. 5.

2) Cleanness

Cleanness of DI engine fuel system and service procedures
The fuel system for DI engine consists of transfer (low pressure) line and high pressure line.
Its highest pressure reaches over 1,600 bar.
preciseness.
The pressure regulation and injector operation are done by electric source from engine ECU.
Accordingly, if the internal valve is stuck due to foreign materials, injector remains open.
Even in this case, the HP pump still operates to supply high pressurized fuel. This increases the
pressure to combustion chamber (over 250 bar) and may cause fatal damage to engine.
You can compare the thickness of injector nozzle hole and hair as shown in below figure (left side). The
below figure shows the clearance between internal operating elements.
The core elements of fuel system has very high preciseness that is easily affected by dust or very small
foreign material. Therefore, make sure to keep the preliminary works and job procedures in next pages.
If not, lots of system problems and claims may arise.
