Hi Oz Volvo folks,
Wife's car broke down whilst driving, engine cut and spluttered and engine switched off. Haven't been able to get it to start since getting it towed home yesterday. With the charger on it cranks fine but does not start.
I have put it on the charger so battery is full.
I have put through vida dice and pulled the codes
-ECM-2530 fuel system - too low
-ECM-2590 fuel system - too low
I then ran the live data through Vida with the following results.
Engine speed at start of crank 230 then drops to 210-15fuel pressure sensor 35000-45000 hPaFuel pressure nominal value 350,000 hPaCurrent through fuel pressure regulator at with ignition key in not starting 200mA
I can see that the fuel pressure sensor is detecting very low reading 10-12% of what the nominal value should be but i am not sure what next to do as i don't know if it is a faulty fuel pressure sensor giving incorrect readings or is in fact faulty?
The fuel tank is 90% full as well. I am thinking that it could the in tank fuel pump has gone bad, or the fuel pressure regulator or fuel pressure sensor but don't want to go buying parts until i have pin pointed the problem more.
Last year i changed the fuel filter housing complete with filter so its not that.
I would greatly appreciate your help as its the wife's car and we are highly dependent upon it for kids to school and her work commitments.
I live 20 mins south of Campbelltown 2560.
