- Using scan tool, stop actuation test and actuate Auto Shutdown (ASD) relay. Touch fuel pump relay. If fuel pump relay does not pulsate when actuated, go to TEST NS-5B. If fuel pump relay pulsates when actuated, turn ignition off.
- Disconnect fuel pump relay. Using scan tool in voltmeter mode, check voltage on fuel pump relay connector battery voltage circuit (Dark Green/White wire). If voltage is less than 10 volts, repair open Dark Green/White wire. Perform TEST VER-1. If voltage is more than 10 volts, install a known-good fuel pump relay.
- Attempt to start engine. If engine starts, replace fuel pump relay. Perform TEST VER-1. If engine does not start, reinstall original fuel pump relay.
- Disconnect fuel pump harness connector. Ensure fuel pump connector has clean and tight connections. Turn ignition on. Using scan tool, actuate fuel system. Using scan tool in voltmeter mode, check voltage on fuel pump connector output wire (Dark Green/Black wire). If voltage is less than 10 volts, repair open Dark Green/Black wire. Perform TEST VER-1. If voltage is more than 10 volts, stop actuation test.
- Using scan tool in ohmmeter mode, check resistance of fuel pump connector ground circuit (Black wire). If resistance is more than 5 ohms, repair open Black wire. Perform TEST VER-1. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, replace fuel pump. Perform TEST VER-1.
