Oil Pressure Switch (For Fuel Pump): Description and Operation

OPERATION

As a backup system to the fuel pump relay, the fuel pump also can be turned "ON" by the oil pressure sensor/switch. The oil pressure sender has
two internal circuits. One operates the oil pressure indicator or gage in the instrument cluster and the other is a normally open switch which closes
when oil pressure reaches about 28 kPa (4 psi). If the fuel pump relay fails, a Code 54 will be set in the Electronic Control Module (ECM) and the
oil pressure switch runs the fuel pump.
