Abstract
Disclosed is a method of detecting an abnormality in a first pressure sensor or a second pressure sensor of a fuel cell system including the upstream-side first pressure sensor and the downstream-side second pressure sensor provided in a fuel supply flow passage configured to connect a fuel cell and a fuel supply source, a pressure reducing valve, a first shutoff valve, and a second shutoff valve. The first shutoff valve is closed to shut off supply of fuel from the fuel supply source. a pressure on an upstream side and a pressure on a downstream side of the pressure reducing valve is decreased to be equal to or less than a pressure regulation lower limit value. The second shutoff valve is closed and detection pressure values of the first pressure sensor and the second pressure sensor are compared with each other.
