P1169 Meaning
The Component Comprehensive Monitor (CCM) monitors the fuel rail pressure (FRP) for acceptable fuel pressure. The Engine Control Module (ECM) detected that the fuel pressure was high for the operating condition. The test fails when the fuel pressure falls below or exceeds a calibrated minimum/maximum value during a calibrated period.
