What are truck check engine codes spn 157 mean?

SPN: 157. FMI: 1/18. Lamp: Amber. REASON: The ECM has detected that fuel pressure is lower than commanded pressure. EFFECT: Possibly hard to start or low power.

How do you lower fuel rail pressure?

If the pressure in the rail is above the target value, the pulse width command to the fuel quantity valve will decrease to reduce the amount of fuel allowed into the rail. Since the injectors are running and spraying fuel into the cylinders to drive the engine, the pressure in the rail will decrease.

What’s the problem with my Cummins check engine light?

Truck sat for two weeks over holidays and I replaced both fuel filters and the fuel rail pressure sensor. Didn’t fix the problem so took the truck to an engine shop, they troubleshooted for 5 hrs and can’t find the problem, said all fuel pressures check out and couldn’t find the cause.
