Fuel Pump Electrical Circuit

When the ignition switch is in the ON position, before engaging the starter), the PCM energizes the fuel pump relay for 2 seconds, causing the fuel pump to pressurize the fuel system. If the PCM does not receive ignition reference pulses with the engine cranking or running within 2 seconds, it shuts OFF the fuel pump relay, causing the fuel pump to stop.
