Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Pontiac G5 and 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the fuel pump relay using the J 43244:  Pliers.
  2. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ground circuit terminal 85 and B+.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ground circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance.
  3. Verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the ground circuit terminal 85 and the control circuit terminal 86.
    • If the test lamp illuminates, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  4. Remove the test lamp.
  5. Command the fuel pump relay ON with a scan tool. Verify the scan tool Fuel Pump Relay Ckt Short Gnd Test Status parameter is OK.
    • If not the specified value, test the fuel pump relay control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  6. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the fuel pump relay control circuit terminal 86 and the ground circuit terminal 85. Command the fuel pump relay ON with a scan tool. Verify the scan tool Fuel Pump Relay Ckt Short Gnd Test Status parameter is Fault.
    • If not the specified value, test the fuel pump relay control circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  7. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the fuel pump relay.
