Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2008 GMC Yukon XL, 2008 GMC Yukon, 2008 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2008 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2008 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
IMPORTANT:
Verify that the fuel tank is not empty. Only perform this diagnostic if there is at least 2 gallons of fuel in the fuel tank.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the fuel line pressure sensor.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 1 ohm between the low reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the fuel pump flow control module.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 volts between the fuel line pressure sensor 5-volt reference circuit terminal 3 and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the fuel pump flow control module.
- If greater than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the fuel pump flow control module.
- Ignition OFF, install a 3A fused jumper wire between the 5-volt reference circuit terminal 3 and the signal circuit terminal 1.
- Ignition ON, observe the Fuel Pump Control Module Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor parameter. The scan tool should display between 4.8-5.2 volts.
- If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit terminal 1 for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the fuel pump flow control module.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the fuel rail pressure sensor.
