Fuel Pump Relay: Description and Operation
Operation
OPERATION
The fuel pump relay supplies battery voltage to the fuel pump. A buss bar in the Power Distribution Center (PDC) supplies voltage to the solenoid side
and contact side of the relay. The fuel pump relay power circuit contains a fuse between the buss bar in the PDC and the relay. The fuse is located in the
PDC. Refer to the Wiring Diagrams for circuit information. See: Maintenance/Fuses and Circuit Breakers/Fuse
The PCM controls the fuel pump relay by switching the ground path for the solenoid side of the relay on and off. The PCM turns the ground path off
when the ignition switch is in the Off position. When the ignition switch is in the On position, the PCM energizes the fuel pump. If the crankshaft
position sensor does not detect engine rotation, the PCM de-energizes the relay after approximately one second.
