  • Faulty control module, less often.

Diagnosis and repair

  • Check the manufacturer documentation to identify the pump and sensor involved.
  • Inspect the sensor wiring and connector.
  • Read pump speed in live data and check it tracks engine speed.
  • Test the sensor with a multimeter or oscilloscope, then replace the faulty part.
  • Clear the code and road test.
