Hummer H2. Manual - part 1648

DTC P0230

Circuit Description

The control module enables the fuel pump relay when the ignition switch is turned ON. The control module will

Inspect for an intermittent and for a poor connection at
the throttle body harness connector. Refer to Testing
for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections
and Repairing Connector Terminals in Wiring
Systems.

disable the fuel pump relay within two seconds unless the control module detects ignition reference pulses. The
control module continues to enable the fuel pump relay as long as ignition reference pulses are detected. The
control module disables the fuel pump relay within two seconds if ignition reference pulses cease to be detected
and the ignition remains ON.

The control module monitors the voltage on the fuel pump relay control circuit. If the control module detects an
incorrect voltage on the fuel pump relay control circuit, a fuel pump relay control DTC sets.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The engine speed is more than 400 RPM.

The ignition voltage is between 6-18 volts.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The PCM detects that the commanded state of the driver and the actual state of the control circuit do not
match.

The above conditions are present for a minimum of 2.5 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on the second consecutive ignition
cycle that the diagnostic runs and fails.

The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The first time the
diagnostic fails, the control module stores this information in the Failure Records. If the diagnostic
reports a failure on the second consecutive ignition cycle, the control module records the operating
conditions at the time of the failure. The control module writes the operating conditions to the Freeze
Frame and updates the Failure Records.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles
that the diagnostic runs and does not fail.

A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes.

A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other
emission related diagnostic.

Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool.

Test Description

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

4: This step verifies that the PCM is providing voltage to the fuel pump relay.

5: This step tests for an open in the ground circuit to the fuel pump relay.

6: This step tests if the voltage is constantly being applied to the control circuit of the fuel pump relay.
