Fuel Pump Control Module - J538- / Transfer Fuel Pump - G6-, Checking

Function

The Engine Control Module -J623- tells the Fuel Pump Control Module -J538- the demand needed for fuel volume and pressure and activates the Transfer Fuel Pump -G6-. The Transfer Fuel Pump -G6- transfers fuel to the rest of the fuel system, where it is monitored by the Engine Control Module -J623- through sensors, and controlled through regulators and/or metering valves.
