Fuel Pump Primary Circuit

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

In the diagram below, when the engine is cranked, current flows from terminal STAR of the ECM to the starter
relay coil and also current flows to terminal STA of the ECM (STA signal).
When the STA signal and NE signal are input to the ECM, the Tr1 is turned ON, current flows to the coil of
the circuit opening relay, the relay switches on, power is supplied to the fuel pump, and the fuel pump oper-
ates.
While the NE signal is generated (engine running), the ECM keeps the Tr1 ON (circuit opening relay ON)
and the fuel pump also keeps operating.
The fuel pump speed is controlled at two levels (high speed or low speed) by the condition of the engine
(starting, light load, heavy load). When the engine starts (STA ON), the Tr2 in the ECM is OFF, so the fuel
pump relay closes and battery positive voltage is applied directly to the fuel pump. The fuel pump operates
at high speed.
After the engine starts while idling or light loads, since the Tr2 goes ON, power is supplied to the fuel pump
via the fuel pump resistor. The fuel pump operates at low speed.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:
Read freeze frame data using 

the hand−held tester

. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when

a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was
running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air–fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other
data from the time when a malfunction occurred.

1

Check voltage between terminal FPR and E1 of ECM.

CHECK:
Measure the voltage between terminals of E6 and E6 ECM con-
nectors.
