WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 32 other vehicles, including the 2011 Mercury Milan, 2011 Mercury Mariner, 2011 Mercury Grand Marquis, 2011 Lincoln Town Car, and 2011 Lincoln Navigator L. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The FPDM receives a duty cycle signal from the PCM and controls the fuel pump operation in relation to this duty cycle. This results in variable speed fuel pump operation. The FPDM controls the fuel pump by switching the fuel pump return circuit ON and OFF at the required duty cycle. The FPDM sends diagnostic information to the PCM on the FPM circuit. For additional information on the fuel pump control and the fuel pump monitor, refer to FUEL SYSTEMSΒ .
