Icp Code P 1211 Keeps Going Off

Hi guys I keep throwing this code does anyone have any idea why that would happen or how to fix it also what is the ICP sensor and what is its purpose. It only happens when I really get on it.

Injection Control Pressure (ICP) Sensor

Signal Functions
The injection control pressure (ICP) sensor is a variable capacitance sensor that, when supplied with a 5-volt reference signal from the powertrain control module (PCM), produces a linear analog voltage signal that indicates pressure.

The ICP sensor's primary function is to provide a feedback signal to indicate rail pressure so that the PCM can command the correct injector timing and pulse width and the correct injection control pressure for proper fuel delivery at all speed and load conditions.

Detection/Management
If the PCM detects a malfunctioning ICP sensor (sensor out of range high or low), the CHECK ENGINE light is illuminated and the PCM will go to open loop control of injection control pressure. (Operate from an estimated injection control pressure.)

Your getting the code because your truck is chipped. Your HPOP isn't getting enough fuel through the injectors to meet what's being called for at WOT with the enhanced programming of the PCM.

That is wgat I thought so i would need a HPOP or get rid of the chip to get rid of this code correct? Do alot of trucks that are chipped get this same code all of the time? Also I can push 27-28 lbs of boost and it doesnt throw any codes so there is no point in the ITP Overboost Annihilator correct?

Thanks

The code is really nothing to worry about. Its common in modded trucks and the only real cure is either dual HPOP's or one of the new single HPOP's that are capable of supplying the required pressure.

I agree with SuperDoodie. Unless you're trying to make more power, then the light is just an inconvenience. No harm done.

That or single shot injectors that take less oil. I would suggest either a BTS Dual oil pump or Terminator. The single ones are pretty new and untested at this time so I am not sure about them

Yes they do.

Besides throwing codes, it backs off the fuel so yes, you need the Overboost Annihilator.
