  3. Ignition ON, test for less than 5.0 Ξ© between the fuel pump low reference circuit terminal A and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the fuel pump low reference circuit for a high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the fuel pump control module.
  4. Ignition OFF, install a test lamp between the control circuit terminal D and the low reference circuit terminal A
  5. Ignition ON, command the Fuel Pump Relay ON and OFF with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
