| DTC No. | Detection Item | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area | MIL | Memory | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| P008800 | Fuel Rail / System Pressure - Too High | Although the ECM is requesting the fuel pump assembly (for high pressure side) to open the spill control valve, fuel pressure increases 3 MPa (30.6 kgf/cm2, 435 psi) from target pressure for about 6 seconds (1 trip detection logic). |
| Comes on | DTC stored | SAE Code: P0088 |
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
If the fuel pressure (for high pressure side) increases despite a decrease request signal being sent to the fuel pump assembly (for high pressure side) by the ECM, the ECM will illuminate the MIL and store this DTC.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN
HINT:
-
When clearing the permanent DTCs, refer to the "CLEAR PERMANENT DTC" procedure.
Click here
- Permanent misfire and fuel system DTCs can only be cleared when performing the universal trip driving pattern when no malfunction is detected.
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the power switch on (IG).
- Turn the Techstream on.
- Record the Freeze Frame Data.
- Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
- Turn the power switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
- Turn the power switch on (IG).
- Turn the Techstream on.
-
Put the engine in Inspection Mode (Maintenance Mode).
Click here
- Start the engine.
- Based on the engine speed, engine load, injection mode and other conditions displayed in the Freeze Frame Data, reproduce the conditions present when the DTC was stored.
- Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.
-
Read the pending DTCs.
HINT:
- If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
- If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.
- Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.
- Input the DTC: P008800.
-
Check the DTC judgment result.
Techstream Display
Description
NORMAL
- DTC judgment completed
- System normal
ABNORMAL
- DTC judgment completed
- System abnormal
INCOMPLETE
- DTC judgment not completed
- Perform driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions
HINT:
- If the judgment result is NORMAL, the system is normal.
- If the judgment result is ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
NOTICE:
-
Vehicle Control History may be stored in the hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly if the engine is malfunctioning. Certain vehicle condition information is recorded when Vehicle Control History is stored. Reading the vehicle conditions recorded in both the Freeze Frame Data and Vehicle Control History can be useful for troubleshooting.
Click here
(Select Powertrain in Health Check and then check the time stamp data.)
Click here
-
If any "Engine Malfunction" Vehicle Control History item has been stored in the hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly, make sure to clear it. However, as all Vehicle Control History items are cleared simultaneously, if any Vehicle Control History items other than "Engine Malfunction" are stored, make sure to perform any troubleshooting for them before clearing Vehicle Control History.

HINT:
Read Freeze Frame Data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as Freeze Frame Data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, Freeze Frame Data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
PROCEDURE
| 1. | CHECK OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P008800) |
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the power switch on (IG).
(c) Turn the Techstream on.
(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.
(e) Read the DTCs.
Powertrain > Engine > Trouble Codes| Result | Proceed to |
|---|---|
| DTC P008800 is output | A |
| DTC P008800 and other DTCs are output | B |
HINT:
If any DTCs other than P008800 are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.

| 2. | INSPECT FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR (FOR HIGH PRESSURE SIDE) |
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the power switch on (IG).
(c) Turn the Techstream on.
(d) Put the engine in Inspection Mode (Maintenance Mode).
Powertrain > Hybrid Control > Utility| Tester Display |
|---|
| Inspection Mode |
(e) Start the engine.
(f) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Fuel Pressure (High).
Powertrain > Engine > Data List| Tester Display |
|---|
| Fuel Pressure (High) |
(g) According to the display on the Techstream, read the Data List while racing the engine.
OK:
Fuel pressure fluctuates.
HINT:
Perform "Inspection After Repair" after replacing the fuel pressure sensor (for high pressure side).
