Fuel Pump: Testing and Inspection
Fuel Pump Circuit Troubleshooting2006 Model
If you suspect a problem with the fuel pump, check that the fuel pump actually runs; when it is on, you will hear some noise if you listen to the fuel fill port with the fuel fill cap removed. The fuel pump should run for 2 seconds when the ignition switch is first turned on. If the fuel pump does not make noise, check as follows:
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Remove the left kick panel, then remove PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP) (A) from the under-dash fuse/relay box.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
4. Measure voltage between PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP) 4P connector terminal No.3 and body ground.
Is there battery voltage?
YES - Go to step 5.
N0 -
- Replace PGM-FI main relay 1 (FI MAIN).
- If needed replace the under-dash fuse/relay box.
5. Measure voltage between PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP) 4P connector terminal No.1 and body ground.
Is there battery voltage?
YES - Go to step 6.
N0 -
- Check the No.19 FUEL PUMP (15 A ) fuse in the under-dash fuse/relay box.
- If needed replace the under-dash fuse/relay box.
6. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
7. Connect PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP) 4P connector terminal No.4 to body ground with a jumper wire.
8. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.
9. Disconnect ECM/PCM connector E (31P).
10. Check for continuity between body ground and ECM/PCM connector terminal E2.
Is there continuity?
YES - Go to step 11.
NO - Repair open in the wire between PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP) and the ECM/PCM (E2).
11. Reinstall PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP).
12. Connect ECM/PCM connector terminal E5 to body ground with jumper wire.
13. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
14. Measure voltage between ECM/PCM connector terminal E2 and body ground.
Is there battery voltage?
YES - Go to step 15.
NO - Replace PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP).
15. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
16. Reconnect ECM/PCM connector E (31P).
17. Open the SCS line with the HDS.
18. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
19. Turn the ignition switch ON (II), and measure voltage between ECM/PCM connector terminal E2 and body ground within 2 seconds.
Is there battery voltage?
YES - Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good ECM/PCM, then recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away with a known-good ECM/PCM, replace the original ECM/PCM.
NO - Go to step 20.
20. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
21. Remove the trunk floor trim panel.
22. Remove the access panel from the floor.
23. Turn the ignition switch ON (II), and measure voltage between fuel pump 5P connector terminal No.5 and body ground within 2 seconds.
Is there battery voltage?
YES - Go to step 28.
NO - Go to step 24.
24. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
25. Remove PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP).
26. Connect PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP) 4P connector terminals No.1 and No.2 with a jumper wire.
27. Turn the ignition switch ON (II), and measure voltage between fuel pump 5P connector terminal No.5 and body ground within 2 seconds.
Is there battery voltage?
YES - Replace PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP).
NO - Repair open in the wire between PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP) and the fuel pump 5P connector.
28. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
29. Check for continuity between fuel pump 5P connector terminal No.4 and body ground.
Is there continuity?
YES - Replace the fuel pump.
NO - Repair open in the wire between the fuel pump 5P connector and G603.
