- If fault occurs while engine is running, FEDS will keep Electronic Control Module (ECM) fuel enabled, preventing a no-start condition upon next start attempt. SYSTEM and SYS indicators will flash, indicating Central Control Module (CCM) and security problems. If fault occurs while engine is not running, FEDS will not enable fuel. ECM Code 41 will also be set if Code 54 is set.
- Turn ignition on, with engine off. If SERVICE ENGINE SOON indicator comes on and PCM Codes P0601 or P0602 are set, see TESTS W/CODES article. If CCM Code 51, 52 or 53 is also set, refer to appropriate testing. If these codes are not set, clear any codes present, turn ignition off, then on.
- If Code 54 resets, replace CCM. If Code 54 does not reset, wiggle wiring and connections to locate intermittent faults. When repairs are completed, clear codes and verify operation.
