Fuel rail pressure sensor — malfunction
Where to start
The fuel rail pressure sensor is not responding properly. Before replacing it, look at the connector and at the pressure live: a sensor showing a flat zero or a flat maximum has lost contact more often than it has failed.
A code is not a diagnosis. It says which check failed, not which part to replace. Clearing it without repair only means the car will report it again in a few trips.
How to put together a report a mechanic will actually read

How the app helps
CarScan reads this code from your car through an OBD-II adapter, shows whether it is active now or only stored, names the module that reported it, and puts it into a plain-text report for your mechanic.
