Remove scan tool. If fuel pump operates, check fuel pressure. See FUEL PRESSURE .
- If fuel pump does not operate, EFI main relay or circuit opening relay may be defective. For relay application and explanation of relay operation, see FUEL PUMP CONTROL CIRCUIT . For testing of EFI main relay or circuit opening relay, see appropriate SYSTEM & COMPONENT TESTING article.
- If relays are okay, check for defective fuses, fusible links or wiring. See appropriate wiring diagram in WIRING DIAGRAMS article. If fuses, fusible links and wiring are okay, check for defective fuel pump. See CHECKING FUEL PUMP OPERATION BY APPLYING BATTERY VOLTAGE TO FUEL PUMP . If fuel pump operates, check fuel pump control circuit. See FUEL DELIVERY under FUEL SYSTEM in appropriate SYSTEM & COMPONENT TESTING article.
