- Turn the ignition off.
- Remove the Fuel Pump Relay.
- Disconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.
- Measure the resistance between ground and the (K31) Fuel Pump Control circuit at the PCM C1 harness connector.
Is the resistance below 1000 Ohms?
Yes
- Repair the short to ground in the (K31) Fuel Pump Control circuit.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 4.
- (K31) FUEL PUMP RELAY CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
- Measure the resistance of the (K31) Fuel Pump Control circuit between the Fuel Pump Relay connector (at terminal 86) and the PCM C1 harness connector.
Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Go To 5.
No
- Repair the open or high resistance in the (K31) Fuel Pump Control circuit.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
- Measure the resistance of the (K31) Fuel Pump Control circuit between the Fuel Pump Relay connector (at terminal 86) and the PCM C1 harness connector.
- POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)
- Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the Power Distribution Center (PDC) and the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
- Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched or partially broken wires.
- Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals. Verify that there is good pin to terminal contact in the related connectors.
- Perform any Technical Service Bulletins that may apply.
Were any problems found?
Yes
- Repair as necessary.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Replace and program the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to MODULE, POWERTRAIN CONTROL, REMOVAL .
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
