Hi , I’ve got 2011 chevy Tahoe LTZ 5.3L, and I diagnosed it with same code: P018B fuel pressure sensor, but I fail to find where it located is it close to the fuel tank, or just below the injectors? Please advise Note: I can see my Tahoe has an issue with playing RPM only in summer time after the both fans activated due to hot temp.

I haven’t done one on a Tahoe yet, but I would guess the fuel pressure sensor would be underneath the vehicle in front of the tank. There is normally a fuel rail pressure sensor also that is in the engine bay as you described. The fuel pressure sensor reads pressure from low pressure pump. The fuel rail pressure sensor reads pressure from the high pressure pump on all the newer GM vehicles I have seen with Direct Injection engines. Let me know if you have any other questions.

@automotivated59342 жыл бұрын
@@Eugene777fly So to set a P2635 the actual fuel pressure (read by the fuel pressure sensor) is outside of the commanded fuel pressure by at least 5 psi for more than 30 seconds. To set a P018b the pcm isnt seeing a change in the fuel pressure under different demands. Without being there to verify I would say changing the fuel pressure sensor is a safe bet.
