Hi,

This vehicle isn't offered in the US, so I don't have the specifics. However, the fuel pressure sensor on a vehicle is typically located on or near the fuel rail. The fuel rail is a metal pipe that distributes fuel to the fuel injectors. The fuel pressure sensor is usually attached to the fuel rail and monitors the pressure of the fuel within the system. Have you checked on there?

Let me know.

Hi,

Looking at the picture, it appears that I'm looking at the wiring harness. Is it a steel pipe under the black insulator?

Let me know.

Hi Jamie, under normal conditions, I would have the info for you, but because this isn't offered in the US, I don't. The sensors are usually on the fuel rail. I wish I could provide a better answer, but I just don't have that information.

Let me know and again, sorry.
