Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Possible Causes
Always perform the PRE-DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURE before proceeding. Refer to PRE-DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURE .
The table below shows the FPCM DTCs and the correlating INTENDED failure modes. NOTE: On some vehicles the faults may not always set as expected which may lead to a misdiagnosis (See the know issue information). Therefore, it is usually best to perform the "Complete Fuel Pump Control Module System Testing (Not DTC Specific)" in the diagnostic information.
| FPCM 1 DTC | FPCM 2 DTC | FAILURE MODES | POSSIBLE CAUSES | PCM/FPCM REACTION |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| P025A | P027A | Missing or invalid PWM Command signal from PCM |
|
NOTE:
It is not uncommon for the P025A DTC to set erroneously for several other failure modes |
| P025B | P027B | Output driver over temp |
|
|
| P025C | P027C | System under voltage - Fuel Pump Relay output voltage to FPCM is below a calibrated threshold (approximately 6.0 volts) |
|
|
| P025D | P027D | System over voltage - Fuel Pump Relay output voltage to FPCM is above a calibrated threshold (approximately 16.0 volts) |
|
|
| P0628 | P2633 | FPCM output to Fuel Pump shorted to ground |
|
|
| P0629 | P2634 | FPCM output to Fuel Pump shorted to voltage |
|
|
| P062A | P062A | Actual fuel pressure is above or below the desired fuel pressure by more than a calibrated threshold.
|
|
|
| P064A | P26EA | Current draw exceeds calibrated threshold |
|
|
| P1205 | P120A | FPCM Micro internal fault |
|
|
| P1206 | P120B | FPCM output to Fuel Pump open circuit |
|
|
| U0109 | U016C | PCM Loss of Communication with FPCM |

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.
