I have a C3 2003 1.4 hdi, none start, i have connected lexia, no fault codes other than coolant, turning the engine over, on fuel pressure live readings i am getting 259 on fuel pressure reference, but zero on measured, the hdi fuel pump has been replaced,disconnecting the common rail sensor brings up the fault in lexia, could the common rail pressure sensor be faulty even if there are no fault codes,
