DTC Codes In the Workshop Manual.....??
 

Just wondering....I have a DTC code that my OBD II reader has spit out (P0453)....however when I go into the diagnosis section of the work manual the DTC's all have numbers such as 34, 35, 36, etc etc etc.... Does anyone know how I get from my P0453 to the proper code in the manual??

Thanks.

What year is your boxster. There are seperate DTC code books depending on the model year and motronic version coding.

P0453 is a tank (fuel) pressure sensor above limit. Fault area is listed as "Short circuit to B+"

Says to check wiring from pressure sensor to the DME control module for short to B+ If it is not OK, then repair harness.

Hi, thanks for the reply :SmileWavy

My boxster is a 2001 Boxster.

What Im wondering is where this fuel pressure sensor is located as I would like to diagnose and fix this problem myself.

Im thinking that maybe its just a bad sensor or simply a short in the wiring as you say. Is the sensor in the tank itself on my particular car or can it be found outside of the tank???

Thanks
