Fuel Pump Control Circuit [02/2017 - ]: Description

When the engine is cranked, the ST relay drive signal output from the ignition switch assembly*1 or certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly)*2 is input into the STA terminal of the ECM, and the NE signal generated by the crankshaft position sensor is also input into the NE+ terminal. The ECM interprets that the engine is cranked, and turns transistor Tr1 in the ECM internal circuit on. Current flows to the C/OPN relay by turning Tr1 on. Then, the fuel pump operates.

While the NE signal is input into the ECM with the engine running, the ECM turns Tr1 on continuously.
