The fuel pump control unit is located under the panel for the door sill on the right rear.

Task 

The fuel pump (M3) is actuated and regulated by the fuel pump control unit.

Function 

Switching on of the fuel pump takes place if the signal "Fuel pump ON" is received by the fuel pump control unit. This signal is sent as a discrete signal (signal with a specific voltage value) and as a CAN signal by the ME-SFI [ME] control unit (N3/10) via the drive train CAN (CAN C) (redundant).

The fuel pump control unit receives the CAN signal "fuel requirements" from the ME-SFI [ME] control unit via a PWM signal (pulse width modulated signal) to regulate the fuel pump.

The current fuel pressure detects the fuel pump control unit via the fuel pressure sensor (B4/7). The information is also sent about the current fuel pressure by the fuel pump control unit to the ME-SFI [ME] control unit.

The fuel pump control unit evaluates the current fuel pressure and specification of the fuel requirements and actuates the fuel pump appropriately.

The fuel delivery amount is regulated variably from 0 to 130 l/h at a fuel pressure of 3.8 bar according to the fuel requirements.

Tanking service 

The fuel tank can be emptied via the fuel pump control unit without the engine running.

The tanking service must be called up for this using the DAS and the following parameters entered:

During emptying the DAS must be connected and the ignition must remain switched on.
