CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The status of the fuel pump circuit 120 is monitored by the Electronic Control Module (ECM) at terminal "YE13" and is used to compensate fuel delivery based on system voltage. This signal is also used to store a trouble code if the fuel pump relay is defective or fuel pump voltage is lost while the engine is running. There should be about 12 volts on circuit 120 for 2 seconds after the ignition is turned or any time references pulses are being received by the ECM.

Code 54 will set if the voltage at terminal "YE13" is less than 2 volts for 1.5 seconds since the last reference pulse was received. This code is designed to detect a faulty relay, causing extended crank time, and the code will help the diagnosis of an engine that "Cranks But Will Not Run."

If a fault is detected during start-up, the "Service Engine Soon" light will stay "ON" until the ignition is cycled "OFF." However, if the voltage is detected below 2 volts with the engine running, the light will only remain "ON" while the condition exists.
