Fuel Pump Control Circuit








1GR-FE ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM: SFI SYSTEM: Fuel Pump Control Circuit

Fuel Pump Control Circuit

DESCRIPTION

As shown in the illustration, when the engine is cranked, current flows from terminal ST1 of the ignition switch into the ECM and the ST (starter) relay coil and also current flows to terminal STA of the ECM (STA signal).
When the STA signal and NE signal are input to the ECM, Tr1 (power transistor 1) is turned ON, current flows to the coil of the circuit opening relay, the relay switches on, power is supplied to the fuel pump, and the fuel pump operates.
While the NE signal is generated (engine running), the ECM keeps the Tr1 ON (circuit opening relay ON) and the fuel pump also keeps operating.
The fuel pump speed is controlled at two levels (high speed or low speed) by engine condition (starting, light load, heavy load). When the engine starts (STA ON), Tr2 (power transistor 2) in the ECM is OFF, so the fuel pump relay closes and positive battery voltage is applied directly to the fuel pump. The fuel pump operates at high speed.
During idling or under light loads, Tr2 goes ON, and then power is supplied to the fuel pump via the fuel pump resistor. The fuel pump operates at low speed.





WIRING DIAGRAM






HINT: This DTC chart is on the premise that the engine is started normally. If the engine is difficult to start, proceed to the problem symptoms table (Symptom Related Diagnostic Procedures).


INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK FUEL PUMP OPERATION
(a) Check if there is pressure in the fuel inlet hose.

HINT: If there is fuel pressure, you will hear the sound of fuel flowing.

OK -- INSPECT FUEL PUMP RELAY ASSEMBLY
NG -- Continue to next step.
2. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (OPERATE CIRCUIT OPENING RELAY)
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester ON.
(c) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Control the Fuel Pump / Speed.
