P1156 Fiat Supermirafiori Diagnostic Trouble Code

P1156 Fiat Supermirafiori code definition:
P1156 is a kind of OBD-II Diagnostic P-Powertrain Diagnostic Trouble Code for Fiat Supermirafiori.

P1156 Fiat Supermirafiori is described as Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Malfunction. This code is strictly about the incoming signal from the FRP (fuel rail pressure) sensor falling below the calibrated limit for a certain period of time. The PCM then uses this data to provide the right strategies for the fuel delivery and ignition timing of the engine.

Symptoms

Symptoms of a P1156 Fiat Supermirafiori diagnostic trouble code may include:

Engine surge
Blown fuse (if applicable)
Lack of power
Diminished fuel efficiency

Possible Causes :

The Mass Airflow sensor is a hot wire that senses the volume of air entering the intake manifold. The computer uses this information to control fuel mixture.
Defective ECU strategies or components will prevent proper regeneration
Rarely - faulty Powertrain Control Module (PCM-programming required after replacement)

Common Misdiagnoses

Vehicle Speed Output Circuit Problem
Cruise Control Servo Indicates Low Problem
A/C System High Pressure High Temperature Problem
PCM Stack Overrun Problem
Transmission Control Module Reprogrammable Memory Problem

Repair Processes :

Oxygen sensors signal the engine management computer the amount of oxygen present in the exhaust, which is used in determining and controlling the fuel ratio. With the valve disconnected, the red voltmeter lead should be attached to the IMRC valve power wire and the black voltmeter lead connected to ground. Use the DVOM to test resistance and continuity on all system circuits if actuator and sensor resistance levels are in compliance with manufacturer's specifications.

Process Tips

Diagnostic trouble code P1156 Fiat Supermirafiori is not difficult to diagnose and repair. Thus, it always pays to have a qualified technician to look after your vehicle should this error code arise.

Diagnosing this code requires the engine to be in good running shape, without unmetered air entering the engine. If other codes that relates to misfiring condition, lean running or air entering the engine is present, then you must first fix those error codes before P1156 Fiat Supermirafiori.

Fortunately, P1156 Fiat Supermirafiori is a fairly common OBD code, meaning that it applies to all makes and models of vehicles made after 1996.
