Diagnostic Procedure

CHECK OVERALL FUNCTION
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Pinch fuel feed hose with two fingers.
  Fuel pressure pulsation should be felt on the fuel feed hose for 1 second after ignition switch is turned ON.
OK or NG

OK : INSPECTION END

NG : GO TO 2.

  : Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.
CHECK FUEL PUMP GROUND CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT
1. Check harness continuity between "fuel level sensor unit and fuel pump" terminal 3 and ground. Refer to WIRING DIAGRAM .
  Continuity should exist.
2. Also check harness for short to power.
OK or NG

OK : GO TO 11.

NG : GO TO 10.
DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART
Check the following.
- Harness connectors C1, E41
- Harness for open or short between "fuel level sensor unit and fuel pump" and ground
  : Repair open circuit or short to power in harness or connectors.
CHECK FUEL PUMP
Refer to "COMPONENT INSPECTION ".

OK or NG

OK : GO TO 12.

NG : Replace fuel pump.
CHECK INTERMITTENT INCIDENT
Refer to "TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENT ".

OK or NG
