Circuit/System Description

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 s, 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.

Conditions for Running the DTC

    • DTC P018B, P018C, P018D, P0231, P0232, P023F, P064A, P1255 or P06A6 are not active.
    • DTC P0641 has not failed this ignition cycle.
    • Fuel pump control is enabled and the fuel pump control state is normal.
    • The system voltage is greater than 11 V.
    • The engine has been running for more than 30 s.
    • Low fuel level warning not present.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

This DTC sets when the fuel pump control module detects a predetermined fuel pressure performance degradation between the desired fuel rail pressure and the current estimated fuel rail pressure.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

DTC P2635 is a Type B DTC.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

DTC P2635 is a Type B DTC.

Diagnostic Aids

Using the Failure Records data may help locate an intermittent condition. If you cannot duplicate the DTC, the information in the Failure Records can help determine how many miles since the DTC set. The Fail Counter and Pass Counter can help determine how many ignition cycles that the diagnostic test reported a pass and/or a fail.

Circuit/System Testing

  1. Verify that DTC P018C, P018D, P0231, P0232, or P023F is not set.
  2. If any of the DTCs are set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle .
  3. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the G12 Fuel Pump.
  4. Ignition OFF, test for less than 5.0 Ω between the G12 Fuel Pump low reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.
  5. If greater than the specified range, test the G12 Fuel Pump low reference circuit for a high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K27 Fuel Pump Control Module.
  6. Ignition OFF, install a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 1 and the low reference circuit terminal 2.
  7. Ignition ON, command the Fuel Pump Relay ON and OFF with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
  8. 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.
  9. Perform the Fuel System Diagnosis to verify proper fuel pressure.
  10. If the fuel pressure is not normal, replace the G12 Fuel Pump.
  11. If all circuits test normal, replace the K27 Fuel Pump Control Module.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
