Transfer Fuel Pump (FP) (G6) electrical, checking

Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required

Hand held remote control (jumper).

Multimeter.

Electrical connector test lead set.

Test conditions

Battery voltage 12.5 V.

Fuse (SD12) OK.

Fuse (SF6) OK.

Fuse (SC1) OK.

Test sequence

TT Coupe

- Remove the rear seat bench.

TT Roadster

- Remove the right rear side trim panel.

All vehicles

- Remove the cover retainers - arrows - from the right sealing flange.





- Disconnect the Transfer Fuel Pump (FP) (G6) electrical harness connector - arrow -.





- Connect a Hand held remote control (jumper) to terminal - 1 - of the Transfer Fuel Pump (FP) (G6) and to vehicle battery (+).

- Connect a jumper cable from a Electrical connector test lead set to terminal - 5 - of the Transfer Fuel Pump (FP) (G6) and to vehicle Ground (GND).





- Press the switch on the Hand held remote control (jumper).

The Fuel Pump (FP) runs quietly. Avoid surrounding noises while testing the fuel pump.

- Listen for an operating noise from the Transfer Fuel Pump (FP) (G6).

If no operating noise is heard:

- Remove the fuel delivery unit.

- Using a Multimeter, check the Transfer Fuel Pump (FP) (G6) electrical connector terminals 1 to 5 for continuity.





Specified value: 0 ohms.

If the specification was not obtained:

- Check the Transfer Fuel Pump (FP) (G6) electrical harness connector terminal 1 to 5 for a short circuit to Battery positive (+) or an open circuit.

- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.

If no malfunction is detected in the wiring and the resistance value was not OK:

- Replace the fuel pump.

If no malfunction is detected in the wiring and the resistance value was OK:

If an operating noise is heard:

Checking voltage

- Switch the ignition on.

- Using a Multimeter, check the Transfer Fuel Pump (FP) (G6) electrical harness connector terminal 1 to Ground (GND) for voltage.

- Switch the ignition off.

Specified value: Battery voltage.

If the specification was not obtained:

- Check the Transfer Fuel Pump (FP) (G6) electrical harness connector terminal 1 to the Fuel Pump (FP) Control Module (J538) electrical harness connector terminal for an open circuit, or a short circuit to Battery positive (+) or Ground (GND).

- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.

- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.

If the specification was obtained:

Checking Ground (GND)

- Using a Multimeter, check the Transfer Fuel Pump (FP) (G6) electrical harness connector terminal 5 to the Fuel Pump (FP) Control Module (J538) electrical harness connector terminal for resistance.

Specified value: 1.5 ohms Max.

If the specification was not obtained:

- Check the Transfer Fuel Pump (FP) (G6) electrical harness connector terminal 5 to the Fuel Pump (FP) Control Module (J538) electrical harness connector terminal for an open circuit, or a short circuit to Battery positive (+) or Ground (GND).

- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.

- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.

If no malfunction is detected in the wiring:

- Replace the Fuel Pump (FP) Control Module (J538).

- Assembly is performed in the reverse of the removal.

Final procedures

After the repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:

1. Check the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory.

2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory.

3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to => [ Readiness Code ] Engine.

End of diagnosis
