CODE P0193 all that was left?

OK look at the PIDS 602 and 603. One is the pressure the system is calling for, looks like 6467? The other is the pressure the sensor sees, 4748. I would test it against a mechanical gauge, if the gauge matches the sensor then it's a bad pump if the gauge show the requested pressure then the sensor has an issue, probably something in the 5 volt feed as it shares it with the crank sensor which is what is throwing the tooth code. If you have a scope or a way to watch the 5 volts line connect at the crank sensor and see if it drops out if the wiring is moved or as it heats up. Because the pressure sensor uses that same 5 volts it could be what is actually causing the fuel issue if the voltage isn't steady.

I don't think I have a way of watching or any access to the cps harness, tight space. I have access to the harness of the fuel pressure sensor at the rail. But ya something isn't right why the pressure sensor and then this code about the teeth keeps coming back. The weird thing is that I drove it with all the previous codes for 60 miles no issues and it never died. Maybe if its on the move no drop but if let idle it will drop and die and I just didn't notice it. Both the new cps and fuel rail and the low pressure sensor on the left driver side under the seat are all new.

Tight access could mean the harness has a spot that rubbed. You should be able to monitor the 5 volt from the fuel pressure sensor. Just back-probe it and see if it stays constant. Say it is 4.99 key on engine off, but when it's running it bounces around or drops to 4 volts, that is the problem.

No I checked the harness when I replaced the CPS. Tight as in you can barely put your hand in. Difficult as in to place any type of meter or to place anything into a wire connector. It is covered in a heat type protector and I removed it to replace the connector and the wire was in great shape. I can do it from the fuel sensor. Is it not supposed to bounce while running?

So this code is for the fuel rail pressure sensor up by the engine on the fuel rail. Have you swapped it out yet?

Code P0193 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit High Input

It is time to refill the bucket.

It must be the high pressure pump then. You replaced the high pressure pump and the sensor so the high pressure pump is the only thing left.

High pressure pump here means the one in the tank correct? They don't have ones like Audis or the newer bmws do right?

Yes, the fuel pump in the tank, not the transfer pump

I checked the pressure. First reading is when ignition on, second one when started, Stayed around 40, 5 minutes later was around 35-38, when reved up goes to 40 again. After few minutes went to 32-34 and sometimes goes up to 38 or so. Now its hovering around 30. Will update again once it dies

I left it xonnected and cane back an hour after and found it at 50 psi with everything off, so the injectors are not leaking. But am not sure what is the range for the fuel pressure while running. I doubt the 30s is the right range and may indicate a weak pump

I would expect 50 to be about normal, but I would also look at the 5 volt signal to the pressure sensor. If it were lower than 5 volts the sensor would read wrong and tell the ECU the wrong info and give you the wrong pressures. Might be worth it to find the pump power feeds and test them without the control module adjusting them.

That should be OK, the question is does it stay at that voltage or does it drop out while the engine is running and cause the issues you are seeing with the crank code and fuel pressure sensor because they share that 5 volt feed.

I guess ill need to find a way to probe it while running right? And not disconnect ot and measure it while running. Isn't it supposed to vary based on fuel needs and ecm pulses? Or it should be constant?

The 5 volts stays constant. The system controls the pumps via a PWM signal. The sensors however get a solid 5 volts on the pink and black and a ground. They only share the 5 volts. If it is dropping out or even just dropping lower it will change the signal back to the ECU.
