Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Chevrolet Aveo. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, the fuel pump should not be running.
- If the fuel pump runs continuously, test the relay switch supply circuit terminal 87 for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the fuel pump relay.
- Ignition OFF, remove the fuel pump relay from the electrical center with the J 43244 .
- Verify a test lamp illuminates between the relay ground circuit terminal 85 and B+.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, repair the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Ignition ON, test for 2-3 V between the control circuit terminal 86 and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to ground, or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- If greater than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit/connections test normal, replace the ECM.
- Command the fuel pump ON with a scan tool. The DMM should transition from 2-3 V when commanded OFF to greater than 10 V when commanded ON.
- If the circuit voltage does not correspond to the specified values, replace the ECM.
- Verify a test lamp illuminates between the relay switch B+ voltage circuit terminal 30 and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, repair the relay switch B+ voltage circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- Install a 15 A fused jumper wire between the relay switch B+ voltage circuit terminal 30 and the relay switch supply circuit terminal 87. The fuel pump should turn ON.
- If the fuel pump does not turn ON, test the relay switch supply circuit and the fuel pump motor ground circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the fuel pump.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the fuel pump relay.
