DTC P0231: Fuel Pump Secondary Circuit Low

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
P0231 - FUEL PUMP SECONDARY CIRCUIT LOW

Description:  The powertrain control module (PCM) monitors the fuel pump monitor (FPM) circuit. The test fails if the PCM commands the fuel pump ON and B+ voltage is not detected on the FPM circuit.
Possible Causes: 
  • Open B+ circuit to the fuel pump relay
  • Open FP PWR circuit between the fuel pump relay and its connection to the FPM circuit
  • Damaged fuel pump relay
Diagnostic Aids:  During the key on engine off (KOEO) self-test, the PCM commands the fuel pump on so this test can be carried out.
