In a redundant mechanism having two pressure regulating valves for covering one of the pressure regulating valves when the other one is in the defective conditions, quick recognition of the defective side is enable when one of them are in the defective conditions. A first and second pressure regulating valves (20,21) are provided for regulating the fuel pressure in the injection circuit connected to the reflux passage (3) and the by-pass passage (29) that communicates with the fuel injection passage (2) via the first and the second orifices (22,27), and a first and second sensors (24,28) for detecting the fuel pressure applied on the respective pressure regulating valves separately are provided. A controller (31) of failure diagnostic means (30) compares the fuel pressures (P1,P2) detected by the first and second sensors (24,28) and the predetermined fuel pressure (P), and if P1=P2, both of the first and the second pressure regulating valves (20,21) are determined to be normal. When the defective condition occurs in one of the pressure regulating valves, P1 and P2 vary. When, it is determined to be abnormal based on the differential pressure, the occurrence and the place of an abnormal condition are notified through a display (33).
