Fuel Pump Electrical Circuit Diagnosis

The engine control module (ECM) supplies voltage to the fuel pump control module when the ECM detects that the ignition is on. The voltage from the ECM to the fuel pump control module remains active for 2 seconds, unless the engine is in crank or run. While this voltage is being received, the fuel pump control module closes the ground switch of the fuel pump and also supplies a varying voltage to the fuel tank pump module in order to maintain the desired fuel rail pressure.

Ignition ON, command the fuel pump ON and OFF using the scan tool ECM output control. The fuel pump should turn on and off.

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the G12 Fuel Pump.
2. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 1 and ground.
3. Ignition ON, command the G12 Fuel Pump ON and OFF using a scan tool ECM fuel pump output control. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF, as commanded.

⇒	If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K27 Fuel Pump Control Module.

⇒	If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K27 Fuel Pump Control Module.

4. Ignition OFF, connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 1 and the low reference circuit terminal 2.
5. Ignition ON, command the G12 Fuel Pump ON using a scan tool. The test lamp should illuminate.

⇒	If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the low reference circuit terminal 1 for a short-circuit to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K27 Fuel Pump Control Module.

6. If all circuits test normal, replace the G12 Fuel Pump.
