Auxiliary Fuel Pump -V393-, CHECKING
Special tools and workshop equipment required
- Multimeter
- Electrical connector test lead set.
Test Conditions
- Battery voltage 12.5 V.
- Fuses OK.
- Fuel filter OK.
- Ignition switched off.
Test Procedure
-- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to PRELIMINARY CHECK
Start diagnosis
-- Disconnect the electrical harness connector from the Auxiliary Fuel Pump -V393- (left side of engine compartment).
-- Connect a multimeter to both terminals of the Auxiliary Fuel Pump -V393- connector and check the motor resistance.
Specified value: 1.0 Ohm (+/-.5 ohm).
-- If the Specified value was Not obtained, replace the Auxiliary Fuel Pump -V393-
-- If the Specified value was obtained:
-- Remove the Auxiliary Fuel Pump Relay -J832-.
-- Turn the ignition ON.
-- Using a test lamp connected to ground, touch terminal 30 of the Auxiliary Fuel Pump Relay -J832-.
The test lamp should be ON.
-- Using a test lamp connected to ground, touch terminal 86 of the Auxiliary Fuel Pump Relay -J832-.
The test lamp should be ON.
-- Turn the ignition OFF.
If the test lamp was Not ON for any above test:
-- Check the circuit between theAuxiliary Fuel Pump Relay -J832- terminal 30 to fuse S - 18, or Auxiliary Fuel Pump Relay -J832- terminal 86 to fuse S - 18 for an open, short to ground or high resistance.
If the test lamp was ON for both tests:
-- Turn the ignition OFF.
-- Install a jumper from relay terminal 30 to relay terminal 86.
-- Turn the ignition ON.
The Auxiliary Fuel Pump -V393- should operate.
-- If the Auxiliary Fuel Pump -V393- does operate:
-- Replace the Fuel Pump Relay -J49- and retest for operation.
-- If the Auxiliary Fuel Pump -V393- still does Not operate:
-- Remove the Engine Control Module -J623-. Refer to the Repair Manual for removal instructions.
-- Check the resistance of the circuit from relay terminal 85 to the Engine Control Module -J623- T94/72 terminal.
Specified value: 1.5 Ohm or less.
-- If the specified value was not obtained, repair the circuit between the relay and the ECM for an open, high resistance or short.
-- If the specified value was obtained, replace the Engine Control Module -J623-. Refer to the Repair Manual for removal instructions.
-- If the Auxiliary Fuel Pump -V393- did Not operate with the jumper connected:
-- Leave ignition ON and jumper connected.
-- Connect a test lamp to ground and touch terminal 2 of the Auxiliary Fuel Pump -V393- electrical harness connector.
The test lamp should be ON.
-- If the test lamp is Not ON, check for an open circuit between the relay terminal 87 and the Auxiliary Fuel Pump -V393- harness connector terminal 2 for an open or high resistance. Repair as necessary.
-- If the test lamp is ON, remove the test lamp from engine ground and connect it to terminal 1 of the Auxiliary Fuel Pump -V393- connector. Touch the other end of the test lamp to terminal 2.
-- The test lamp should be ON.
-- If the test lamp is Not ON, check for an open circuit between the Auxiliary Fuel Pump -V393- harness connector terminal 1 to terminal T94/4 of the Engine Control Module -J623- for an open or high resistance. Repair as necessary.
-- If the test lamp was ON, replace the Auxiliary Fuel Pump -V393-.
Final Procedures
After the repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:
- Check the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 03 - READ DTC MEMORY .
- If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 04 - ERASE DTC MEMORY .
- If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to READINESS CODE .

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
