DTC P0231: FUEL PUMP SECONDARY CIRCUIT LOW

Description:  The 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: 
  • B+ circuit to the fuel pump relay open
  • FPPWR circuit between the fuel pump relay and its connection to the FPM circuit open
  • 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.
