Circuit Description
The engine control module (ECM) contains an output driver module (ODM) that controls the fuel pump relay. The ODM monitors the voltage level at the control circuit when the device is commanded ON or OFF. The ODM output has an internal feedback circuit that connects to the ECM microprocessor. The ECM monitors voltage through the ignition 1 voltage circuit. Excessive voltage or current may cause damage to the ECM. If the ODM detects excessive current or voltage on the output control circuit, this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) will set.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The ignition is ON.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
| • | The ODM has detected a voltage greater than 33 volts. |
| OR |
| • | Excessive current is detected on any circuit to the ODM. |
| • | The above conditions are present for 6 seconds. |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on the second consecutive ignition cycle that the diagnostic runs and fails. |
| • | The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The first time the diagnostic fails, the control module stores this information in the Failure Records. If the diagnostic reports a failure on the second consecutive ignition cycle, the control module records the operating conditions at the time of the failure. The control module writes the operating conditions to the Freeze Frame and updates the Failure Records. |
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
| • | The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and does not fail. |
| • | A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes. |
| • | A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related diagnostic. |
| • | Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool. |
Diagnostic Aids
| • | A condition with the charging system may cause this DTC to set. Refer to Diagnostic System Check - Engine Electrical in Engine Electrical. |
| • | For an intermittent condition, refer to Intermittent Conditions . |

1 | Did you perform the Diagnostic System Check-Engine Controls? | Go to Step 2 | |
2 | Is DTC P0560 set? | Go to Diagnostic System Check - Engine Electrical in Engine Electrical | Go to Step 3 |
3 | Observe the General Info - Output Data List with a scan tool. Do any parameters indicate a fault present? | Go to Step 4 | Go to Step 5 |
4 | Test for a short to voltage on the control circuit of the component that indicated a fault. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition? | Go to Step 6 | Go to Step 5 |
5 | Replace the engine control module (ECM). Refer to Engine Control Module Replacement . Did you complete the replacement? | Go to Step 6 | -- |
