I'm getting codes p0108 p0193 p0453. I've replaced the entire fuel system both fuel pumps injectors fuel line fuel rail pressure sensor map sensor purge valve sensor OVT VVT crankshaft sensor alternator starter new battery also the vent valve near the charcoal canister all replaced in the last year also ignition coils and spark plugs and parts are mostly from rock auto. It's not the ECM that's been tested and cleared I've tested every ground I could find and they all tested fine I can't figure this out and would love to have your input. The car starts and it sounds fairly smooth for a minute and then it just kind of chokes out and stalls now it'll start right back up and do the same thing sometimes it'll run for a minute or two but it doesn't sound great and the fuel real pressure when I check the live data is always I think 2889.1 so very very high and like I said I replaced the high pressure fuel pump the low pressure fuel pump and the fuel reel pressure sensor along with all four injectors I checked all the sensors going to the ECM and they all have continuity I've looked at the wiring I can't find anything there I think that is all the information I'll send another message if there's anything else I can think of but the car's been down like 6 months now and as I get money I'm putting it into it trying to figure this out.

Also replaced both O2 sensors. Checked all fuses and switched fp relay with a known good relay. Checked wires to rail pressure sensor, ftps, hpfp and map sensor for 5v ref, ground and went and tested continuity from each wire from sensor to ECM got a beep and under 1 resistance reading

Thanks for your detailed question and video, it helps.

P0108 - MAP sensor circuit high voltage
P0193 - Fuel rail pressure sensor high
P0453 - EVAP pressure sensor high

Since all three codes are “high input”: You have either:

1. 5V reference shorted to 12V
2. 5V reference floating/open
3. Sensor ground shared circuit open

This is not a fuel system problem. It is an electrical reference circuit problem. I would turn the system on and check the 5 volt reference at the MAP sensor to make sure the system is sitting at 5 volts. Let do this first then I will walk you to the next step. Test the blue wire and let me know. Ken

And I just checked the fuel real pressure sensor for 5 volts yesterday check the ground and then check the signal wire with the car started and accelerating to see if it fluctuated and it did

I believe it's going to be the last one you mentioned I did a voltage drop test on it yesterday or the day before and kept getting four volts I wasn't sure if I was doing it right there wasn't a whole lot I could look up doing it from the connector everything shows doing the test from the battery or the alternator or starter and I did it to the map sensor connector or ftps it's written down downstairs but it was one of the two. Maybe you could tell me how to double check that just to make sure.

I also did do a voltage drop test today on the battery and the battery connectors to the alternator to different grounds and ground strap and I didn't get any drop

Nice testing, so the power is good and the grounds are good. Did you check the grounds to the PCM? Here are the locations of the ground so you can check them out. You might as well check the power inputs as well, they are all together on the PCM. Let me know what happens.

So I'm guessing you didn't read all of my replies. I was saying I did a voltage drop test on the map sensor connector and according to how they said to do it mine came up showing four volts on the ground wire of the sensor

I will do the test you requested but if you're busy and only able to reply once every 24 hours I'd like to get as much info as I can and what the test and how. As possible. I'm disabled and this is my only vehicle I'm not able to go to any of my physical therapy or my other appointments so it's pretty imperative I get this fixed. It's getting down to the wire where my insurance will only pay for I think two more rides to the doctor so I'm trying to get this figured out ASAP. Not trying to bore you with my life story, just stating my situation and the urgency. I understand you're busy and you're doing this for free and I really really do appreciate it very much.

Also there's a couple grounding points inside the car that I did not locate are you able to get a picture diagram of their exact location I know they're on the driver's side but I don't know if they're under the carpet or under the panels It was very unclear and I was not able to test those grounds. In the engine compartment I got the ones on the driver and passenger towers, 2 on dr. Side tower by ECU, the strap, the one under the coolant the one on top of the transmission are there any I missed?

To me it sounds like the PCM might be bad, this is why I wanted to test the power and grounds of the PCM. The problem is all off these codes came up at once correct? I would call these guys, I have had good luck with them.

Let me know what they find.

I had my computer cloned and I have two of them so it's not the computer and I did check the power and grounds

Okay, the fact that the coolant sensor is so far off is strange, do you get this reading as the engine is running?

Are you talking about the video? And it's been reading closer to the actual temperature however my ambient temperature sensor is way off I don't know if that was just a fluke that day with the coolant temperature sensor or if it actually warmed up that much possibly due to the bad relay or from me starting it several times that seems to no longer be an issue that video was from a couple weeks ago but I don't think there's anything actually wrong with that one I think the ambient sensor needs changed possibly or I'll see if the sensor maybe fixes that too who knows

Okay so I put the new relay in the main relay and the cooling fan kicked on and would not shut off and then the car wouldn't start because that was running I am assuming something I forgot to mention is that when I tried to turn the dial for the air conditioning or heat inside the car there's no blower doesn't blow anything out on any of the settings I pulled the connector off the coolant sensor to see if that would stop the fan but it did not so now I'm trying to find wiring diagram from the fuse box out but I'm not having any luck so far I happen to get on HB manuals and they have their shop manuals from like 2011 to 2017 Veloster which had the same information that your diagram had and it's doesn't match up to my ECM either so I'll probably just end up using the pin out guide to figure it out. Iwanted to see if there's any other wires sliced in the something I'm checking so I can be thorough so if there's a way you can get the wiring diagram to me that would be awesome If not I'll figure it out so that's where I'm at I'm actually going to put the other computer in just to make sure not the computer but I'm pretty certain it's not but who knows at this point. Thank you

I'm not sure if the cooling fan relay is bad I haven't checked that yet but it's definitely stuck open for some reason

I did one at a time pull out the other cooling fans relays fuses that doesn't stop it from running either just when I take the negative battery terminal off or unplug the main relay and it did do that yesterday when I originally pulled the main relay off the test it the fan turned on when I pulled it out and then I just thought it was because that relay tested bad so but it even does it with a new one in there so I don't know

This is a strange problem, let's see when the engine is running if the alternator is throwing AC voltage. This will play havoc on the systems. Here is a guide to help test for that.

I will try but my problem is that I can't get the fan to stop running and with the fan running it won't let me start the car it doesn't even turn over I switched around the relays that did nothing and the one that I didn't have one to switch with I tested it had continuity and it clicked but had 0.9 resistance I can try to put the old main relay back in however it stalls out really quick so hopefully the test is fast
