No
- Go to step 3
- (Z906) FUEL PUMP MOTOR GROUND CIRCUIT
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the Fuel Pump Module harness connector.
- Using a 12-volt test light to battery voltage, probe the (Z906) Fuel Pump Motor Ground circuit in the Fuel Pump Module harness connector.NOTE: The test light should be illuminated and bright. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.

- Connect the C7 TIPM harness connectors.
- Ignition on, engine not running.
- Using the scan tool under the TIPM Actuators, actuate (Toggle) the Fuel Pump.
- With a 12-volt test light connected to ground, probe the (N1) Fuel Pump Control Output circuit at the Fuel Pump Module harness connector.
Does the test light illuminate brightly and flash on and off?
Yes
- Replace the Fuel Pump Module in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
No
- Go to step 5
- TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE NOTE: Before continuing, check the TIPM harness connector terminals for corrosion, damage or terminal push out. Repair as necessary.
- Using the schematics as a guide, inspect the wire harness and connectors.
- Pay particular attention to all Power and Ground circuits.
