SMCS - 1256 i09652198

Use this procedure to troubleshoot the relay for the Electric Fuel Lift Pump (EFLP). Use this procedure if there is a suspected electrical
fault with the EFLP.

This procedure covers the following diagnostic codes:

Diagnostic Codes for the EFLP Relay

J1939 CDL Code Description

Comments
Code Code (code descriptions may vary)
The Electronic Control Module (ECM) detects the following conditions:

There are no active 168 diagnostic codes.

The ECM is not attempting to power the relay.

Engine Electric Lift Pump for Engine Fuel The ECM has been powered for at least 2 seconds.
1075-5 3666-5
Supply : Current Below Normal
There is a low current condition in the EFLP relay circuit for more than 2
seconds.

The warning light will come on. The diagnostic code will be logged.
The ECM is unable to activate the relay for the EFLP. The EFLP will not
operate or the EFLP will operate all the time. The engine will not operate.
The ECM detects the following conditions:

There are no active 168 diagnostic codes.

The ECM is attempting to power the relay.

The ECM has been powered for at least 2 seconds.

Engine Electric Lift Pump for Engine Fuel
1075-6 3666-6
Supply : Current Above Normal There is a high current condition in the EFLP relay circuit for more than 2
seconds.

The warning light will come on. The diagnostic code will be logged.
The ECM is unable to activate the relay for the EFLP. The EFLP will not
operate or the EFLP will operate all the time. The engine will not operate.
The ECM will continue to attempt to activate the relay. If the current is OK for
6 seconds, then the diagnostic code will be cleared.

Table 1

The following background information is related to this procedure:

The EFLP is used to provide positive fuel pressure to the high-pressure fuel pump. When the keyswitch is turned to the ON position, the ECM will
activate the EFLP. If the engine is not running, the ECM will deactivate the EFLP after 2 minutes.
