DTC P0627-P0629 - LLU

Diagnostic Instructions

DTC Descriptors

Diagnostic Fault Information

Circuit/System Description

The engine control module (ECM) provides ignition voltage to the coil side of the fuel pump relay whenever the engine is cranking or running. The ECM enables the fuel pump relay as long as the engine is cranking or running, and ignition system reference pulses are received. If no ignition system reference pulses are received, the ECM turns OFF the fuel pump. The fuel pump relay control circuit is equipped with a feedback circuit that is pulled up to voltage within the ECM. The ECM can determine if the control circuit is open, shorted to ground, or shorted to a voltage by monitoring the feedback voltage.

Conditions for Running the DTC

Conditions for Setting the DTC

P0627 00

The ECM detects the fuel pump relay control circuit is open for greater than 1 s.

P0628 00

The ECM detects the fuel pump relay control circuit is shorted to ground for greater than 1 s.

P0629 00

The ECM detects the fuel pump relay control circuit is shorted to voltage for greater than 1 s.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

Circuit/System Verification

Note:  If you were sent here from engine cranks but does not run proceed to Circuit/System Testing.

1. Ignition ON, command the Fuel Pump Relay ON and OFF with a scan tool. You should hear and feel an audible click with the KR23A Fuel Pump Relay.
2. Ignition ON, view the DTC information with a scan tool. DTC P0628 00, P0629 00 should not set.
3. Operate the vehicle within the conditions for running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the freeze frame/failure records data.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, remove the KR23A Fuel Pump Relay, from the underhood fuse block.
2. Test for less than 5 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 86 and ground.

⇒	If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.

3. Verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the control circuit terminal 85 and ground.

⇒	If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.

4. Install the KR23A Fuel Pump Relay in the underbonnet fuse block and disconnect the harness connector X1 from the K20 Engine Control Module.
5. Install a 20 A fused jumper on the ECM connector X1 terminals 2. Momentarily touch the end of the fused jumper to B+, you should hear and feel an audible click from the KR23A Fuel Pump Relay.

⇒	If the relay does not click, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.

6. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the KR23A Fuel Pump Relay.

Component Testing

Relay Test

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the KR23A Fuel Pump Relay.
2. Measure for 70-110 Ω between terminals 85 and 86 of the KR23A Fuel Pump Relay.

⇒	If the resistance is not within the specified range, replace the KR23A Fuel Pump Relay.

3. Measure for infinite resistance between following terminals of the KR23A Fuel Pump Relay:

•	Terminals 30 and 86

•	Terminals 30 and 87

•	Terminals 30 and 85

•	Terminals 85 and 87

⇒	If continuity is detected, replace the KR23A Fuel Pump Relay.

4. Connect a 20 A fused jumper wire from the positive terminal of the battery to KR23A Fuel Pump Relay terminal 86. Connect a jumper wire from the negative terminal of the battery to KR23A Fuel Pump Relay terminal 85. Measure for less than 5 Ω between KR23A Fuel Pump Relay terminal 30 and KR23A Fuel Pump Relay socket terminal 87.

⇒	If the resistance measures more than 5 Ω, replace the KR23A Fuel Pump Relay.
