Cell 22: Fuel Pump Controls
Circuit Description
The status of the lift pump is monitored by the PCM. This signal is also used in order to store a DTC if the fuel pump relay is defective or if the fuel pump voltage is lost while the engine is running. There should be about 12 volts on the signal circuit during the glow plug cycle.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
| • | The fuel lift pump is commanded ON. |
| • | The difference between the ignition voltage and the fuel pump voltage is greater than 4 volts. |
| • | The condition was met for 2 seconds. |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The PCM illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on the second consecutive drive trip the diagnostic runs and fails. |
| • | The PCM records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The first time the diagnostic fails, the Failure Records store this information. If the diagnostic reports a failure on the second consecutive drive trip, the Freeze Frame records the operating conditions at the time of failure and updates the Failure Records. |
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
| • | The PCM will turn the MIL off after three consecutive trips without a fault condition. |
| • | A History DTC will clear after forty consecutive warm-up cycles, if this or any other emmision related diagnostic does not report any failures. |
| • | Use of a scan tool will clear the DTC codes. |
Diagnostic Aids
This DTC will not check the fuel pump for operation.
Test Description
Number(s) below refer to the step number(s) on the Diagnostic Table.
Step | Action | Value(s) | Yes | No |
|---|---|---|---|---|
1 |
Important: Before clearing any DTCs, use the scan tool Capture Info to save the Freeze Frame and Failure Records for reference. The control module's data is deleted once the Clear Info function is used. Did you perform the Powertrain On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check? | -- | ||

Does the test lamp come ON during the glow plug cycle and then go OFF after the glow plug cycle is complete? | -- | ||
13 |
Does the test lamp come ON during the glow plug cycle and then go OFF after the glow plug cycle is complete? | -- | ||
14 | Check for an open or short to ground in the circuit from the fuel pump relay harness connector terminal number B3 and PCM. Did you find a problem? | -- | ||
15 | Repair the open or short to ground in the fuel pump relay control circuit. Refer to Wiring Repairs . Is the action complete? | -- | -- | |
16 | Replace the PCM. Important: The new PCM must be programmed. Refer to Powertrain Control Module Replacement/Programming . Is the action complete? | -- | -- | |
17 | Check for proper connections at the fuel pump relay connector. Did you find a problem? | -- | ||
18 | Replace the fuel pump relay. Refer to Fuel Pump Relay Replacement . Is the action complete? | -- | -- | |
