P0004: Fuel Volume Regulator Control Circuit High
Overview:
DTC Description as per ISO standard
Fuel Volume regulator (IMV) control circuit High.
ECU Pin Number
11
Customer Symptom
CE lamp is on
Fault Effects (On Vehicle)
Vehicle may not start, if started then drivability may get affected
As post and pilot injections will be cutoff by EMS ecu.
Lamp Status (If Any)
CE lamp is on
Fault Detection Condition (Root cause)
This fault gets logged when IMV current feedback goes above upper
threshold.
Normal Operating Condition
No faults related to IMV.
Probable Trouble Area
IMV, ECU, Wiring harness
Healing Condition
Clear the errors, Ignition OFF to ON, engine idle & fly-up condition
Component Details:
The Inlet Metering Valve controls rail pressure by regulating the amount of fuel sent to the pumping components of the HP
pump. This actuator has a double role as follows:
First it improves injection system output since the HP pump only compresses the amount of fuel needed to maintain the
rail pressure required by the system.
Secondly it reduces the temperature in the fuel tank as HP pump will be fed with the required amount of fuel for Engine
needs.
In fact, when excess fuel is sent to the return circuit, the expansion of the fluid (from rail pressure to atmospheric
pressure) involves a large amount of heat. This generates an increase in temperature of the fuel sent back to the tank.
Preliminary Checks
x
Check whether the customer voice / view about the issue is matching with the fault effects mentioned above. If
yes, go ahead with next steps. If not, check for other DTC’s presence.
x
Check whether similar complaints are earlier reported. If yes, perform the preliminary checks with respect to
earlier issue closure.
x
Ensure IMV connector is properly connected to the IMV.
x
There is no mud, dirt, foreign particle accumulation on the connector.
x
Check for any EMS ecu pin damages / Pin back out.
x
Check for EMS ecu connector damages
