The ECU switches off the pump preventing the continued
delivery of fuel in these instances:
• If the key switch is not promptly turned to the
"start" position.
• If the engine fails to start.
• If the engine is stopped with the key switch "on"
(as in the case of an accident).
In these situations, the "check engine" light will go on, but
will turn off after 4 cranking revolutions if system function
is OK. Once the engine is running, the fuel pump remains
on.

Fuel Sender Test

measure the resistance. If out of specification, replace the
fuel pump assembly.
Fuel Sender Resistance Specifications:
