Fuel Pump Circuit Troubleshooting (2.4 L Engine) (2017 2018 2019)

Fuel Pump Circuit Troubleshooting 

If you suspect a problem with the fuel pump, check that the fuel pump actually runs; when it is on, you will hear some noise if you listen to the fuel fill port. The fuel pump should run for 2 seconds when the vehicle is turned to ON mode. If the fuel pump does not make noise, check as follows:

  1. Determine possible failure area (FI MAIN RLY OUT line, others)

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    -2. Remove PGM-FI main relay 2 .

    -3. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    -4. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition Vehicle ON mode
      PGM-FI main relay 2: disconnected
    Test point 1 PGM-FI main relay 2 4P socket (female terminals) No. 3:
    Test point 2 Body ground

    YES 

    Go to step 3.

    NO 

    Go to step 2.

  2. Open wire check (FI MAIN RLY OUT line)

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    -2. Disconnect the following connector.

    Relay circuit board connector C (18P)

    -3. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
    PGM-FI main relay 2: disconnected
    Relay circuit board connector C (18P): disconnected

    Is there battery voltage?

    YES 

    Go to step 4.

    NO 

    Check the No. D8 (15 A) fuse in the under-dash fuse/relay box. If the fuse is OK, repair an open in the IG1 FUEL PUMP wire between the No. D8 (15 A) fuse and PGM-FI main relay 2. If needed, replace the under-dash fuse/relay box .

  4. Open wire check (FUEL PUMP RLY CL- line)

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    -2. Jump the SCS line with the HDS, and wait more than 1 minute.

    -3. Disconnect the following connector.

    PCM connector A (51P)

    -4. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
      PGM-FI main relay 2: disconnected
      PCM connector A (51P): disconnected
    Test point 1 PGM-FI main relay 2 4P socket (female terminals) No. 4:

  5. Determine possible failure area (PGM-FI main relay 2, others)

    -1. Reinstall PGM-FI main relay 2.

    -2. Connect terminals A and B with a jumper wire.

    Terminal A PCM connector A (51P) No. 3
    Terminal B Body ground

    -3. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    -4. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

    YES 

    Go to step 6.

    NO 

    Replace PGM-FI main relay 2.

  6. PCM operation check

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    -2. Remove PGM-FI main relay 2 .

    -3. Remove the jumper wire from PCM connector A (50P).

    -4. Reconnect PCM connector A (51P).

    -5. Exit the SCS mode with the HDS.
