What are the symptoms of a faulty fuel pump control module?
1 Answers
When the fuel pump fails, the following symptoms may occur: weak acceleration with a jerking sensation during sudden acceleration; difficulty starting the engine; buzzing noises while driving; illumination of the engine warning light; and engine shaking or vibration. Causes of fuel pump failure include: poor fuel quality, where various impurities in the fuel tank are sucked into the fuel pump motor, causing damage; waiting until the fuel light comes on to refuel, which can lead to the fuel pump operating at a lower level without adequate cooling and lubrication; and failure to replace the fuel filter, which can cause severe blockage in the fuel supply system, making it difficult for the fuel pump to operate and leading to damage due to prolonged high-load conditions.
