Fuel Pump Monitor (FPM) - ERFS

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 25 other vehicles, including the 2013 Lincoln Navigator, 2013 Lincoln MKZ, 2013 Lincoln MKX, 2013 Lincoln MKT, and 2013 Lincoln MKS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: The Mustang 5.8L uses 2 fuel pump control modules to control fuel for the fuel delivery system. The PCM individually monitors both fuel pump control modules through the FPM and FPM2 circuits.

The fuel pump control module communicates diagnostic information to the PCM through the FPM circuit. This information is sent by the fuel pump control module as a duty cycle signal. The 3 duty cycle signals that may be sent are listed in the following table.

FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULE DUTY CYCLE SIGNALS (EDGE 2.0L, ESCAPE 1.6L, ESCAPE 2.0L, EXPLORER 2.0L, EXPLORER 3.5L GTDI, FOCUS, MUSTANG 5.8L, MKT 2.0L, TAURUS 2.0L)

Duty Cycle Comments
20% This duty cycle indicates the fuel pump control module is receiving an invalid duty cycle from the PCM.
40% For Mustang 5.8L, this duty cycle indicates the fuel pump control module is receiving an invalid event notification signal from the RCM. For Edge 2.0L, Escape 1.6L, Escape 2.0L, Explorer 2.0L, Explorer 3.5L GTDI, Focus, MKT 2.0L and Taurus 2.0L, this duty cycle is calibrated off.
60% This duty cycle indicates the fuel pump control module is functioning normally.
80% This duty cycle indicates the fuel pump control module is detecting a concern with the secondary circuits.
