P107B: On Toyota and Lexus hybrids, fuel rail pressure sensor B reads out of range
Fuel rail pressure sensor B circuit range/performance
Severity: Severity not verified — if the car runs badly, have it inspected
The Toyota and Lexus bulletins say only that the check engine light comes on with this code; they do not rate how safe it is to drive.
It gets more serious if:
- Inspect soon: Get it inspected soon if the engine stalls, runs rough or loses power.
P107B in short
On the 2018 to 2020 Toyota Highlander Hybrid and Lexus RX 450h, P107B means fuel rail pressure sensor B reports a range or performance problem. Both makers published a bulletin that replaces the fuel pump assembly. It is not rated as urgent, but a dealer should check your VIN.
The engine computer watches fuel rail pressure through sensors. P107B is set for sensor B when its circuit or reading falls outside the expected range.
Toyota bulletin T-SB-0050-20 (2018 to 2019 Highlander Hybrid) and Lexus L-SB-0022-20 (2018 to 2020 RX 450h and 450hL) say the check engine light can come on with P107B, and replace the fuel pump assembly, per Mitchell 1 summaries.
This page speaks only for those Toyota and Lexus hybrids; other makers use P107B differently.
Pick your make
P107B is a manufacturer-specific code: its meaning depends on who built the car.
Other makes: meaning not verified. Check with a scan tool that reads manufacturer definitions.
Most likely causes
Cause 1: Fuel pump assembly (bulletin repair)
Supported by vehicle data- Why it ranks here
- Toyota and Lexus bulletins prescribe replacing the fuel pump assembly and tube set for P107B on the listed hybrids, though whether the bulletins are current is not verified.
- What would change this
- Rises if your VIN is covered and a dealer confirms the code and pressure reading. Falls if your car is outside the listed models.
Cause 2: Rail pressure sensor B wiring or connector fault
Possible — needs testing- Why it ranks here
- General rail-pressure-sensor circuit faults can set a range code, but no source we read ties them to P107B here.
- What would change this
- Rises if wiring is damaged or the connector is loose. Falls if the sensor signal is steady.
What to test first
Start at step 1. Each result tells you what it means and where to go next.
Step 1: Ask a Toyota or Lexus dealer whether T-SB-0050-20 or L-SB-0022-20 applies to your VIN.
IfIt applies and P107B is stored
It meansThe dealer follows the bulletin repair.
IfIt does not apply
It meansHave the rail pressure sensor circuit tested.
Step 2: Have the fuel rail pressure sensor B signal and connector checked against the service information.
Warning:The fuel system is under high pressure. Let a shop do it.
IfThe wiring or connector is faulty
It meansCircuit fault.
IfThe circuit is good and pressure readings are wrong
It meansBring it to a dealer for the fuel system check.
Symptoms
- Check engine light
- Rough running or poor power in some cases
How to fix
Step 1: Ask a dealer whether T-SB-0050-20 or L-SB-0022-20 applies to your VIN before paying for fuel parts.
Parts and cost context
- Fuel pump:Bulletin parts are a pump assembly and tube set. Labour varies; get a quote.
- Fuel rail pressure sensor:The sensor itself is not the bulletin repair.
Labor varies by vehicle and shop; get a quote before you approve a repair.

P107B questions
Does P107B always mean a new fuel pump?
Only on the Toyota and Lexus hybrids named in the bulletins. On those, the bulletin repair is a fuel pump assembly, but a dealer should confirm for your VIN.
