Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition ON.

2. Verify DTC P0562 is not set.

If the DTC is set
Refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle.

If the DTC is not set

3. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K27 fuel pump control module, ignition ON.

4. Verify a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal 21 and ground.

If the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is good

1. Ignition OFF.

2. Test for less than 2 ohms in the ignition circuit end to end.

If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.

If less than 2 ohms, verify the fuse is not open and there is voltage at the fuse.

If the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is open

1. Ignition OFF.

2. Test for infinite resistance between the ignition circuit and ground.

If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.

If infinite resistance, replace the K27 fuel pump control module.

If the test lamp illuminates

5. Replace the K27 fuel pump control module.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification Verification Tests after completing the repair.
