P1238 - FUEL PUMP SECONDARY CIRCUIT
| Description: | This DTC indicates the fuel pump driver module (FPDM2) detected a fuel pump secondary circuit concern. The FPDM2 sends a message to the powertrain control module (PCM) through the fuel pump monitor (FPM2) circuit, indicating this concern was detected. The PCM sets the DTC when the message is received. | |||
| Possible Causes: |
|
|||
| Diagnostic Aids: | The FPDM2 sends a 75% duty cycle (750 ms on, 250 ms off) through the FPM2 circuit to the PCM while the concern is being detected by the FPDM2. If the concern is no longer detected, the PCM returns to sending an all OK (50% duty cycle) message to the PCM. The FPDM2 controls pump speed by supplying a variable ground on the FP2RTN circuit. | |||
