COOLING FAN MOTORS -1 AND -2

1.

Disconnect cooling fan control module harness connectors.

2.

Supply cooling fan control module terminals with battery voltage
and check operation.

Make sure that cooling fan operates.
If NG, replace cooling fan motor.

COOLING FAN RELAY

1.

Disconnect cooling fan relay harness connector.

2.

DTC P1220 FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULE (FPCM)

DTC P1220 FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULE (FPCM)

PFP:17001

Description

NBS0053A

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

*: ECM determines the start signal status by the signals of engine speed and battery voltage.

This system controls the fuel pump operation. The amount of fuel flow delivered from the fuel pump is altered
between two flow rates by the FPCM operation. The FPCM determines the voltage supplied to the fuel pump
(and therefore fuel flow) according to the following conditions.

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

The FPCM adjusts the voltage supplied to the fuel pump to control
the amount of fuel flow. When the FPCM increases the voltage sup-
plied to the fuel pump, the fuel flow is increased. When the FPCM
decreases the voltage, the fuel flow is decreased.

DTC Confirmation Procedure

NBS0053D

CAUTION:

Always drive vehicle at a safe speed.
NOTE:
If DTC Confirmation Procedure has been previously conducted, always turn ignition switch OFF and wait at
least 10 seconds before conducting the next test.
TESTING CONDITION:
Before performing the following procedure, confirm that battery voltage is more than 11V with ignition
switch ON.

 WITH CONSULT-II

1.

Turn ignition switch ON and select “DATA MONITOR” mode with
CONSULT-II.

2.

Make sure that “COOLAN TEMP/S” indicates less than 70

°

C

(158

°

F). If not, cool down the engine.

3.

Start engine.

4.

Hold vehicle at the following conditions for 12 seconds.

5.

If 1st trip DTC is detected, go to 

EC-513, "Diagnostic Procedure"

 .

 WITH GST

Follow the procedure WITH CONSULT-II above.
