Fuel Pump Circuit (2019 2020 2021)

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 with the fuel fill cap removed. 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. Under-dash fuse/relay box internal circuit check

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

    - 2. Remove PGM-FI main relay 2. Relay and Control Unit Locations (2019 2020 2021)

    - 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: (1)
    Test point 2 Body ground
