Control System
FUEL PUMP RELAY
The fuel pump relay supplies battery voltage to the
fuel pump. The PCM controls the fuel pump relay
by switching the ground path for the solenoid side
of the relay on and off. The PCM turns the ground
path off when the ignition switch is in the Off position.
When the ignition switch is in the On position, the
PCM energizes the fuel pump. If the crankshaft

position sensor does not detect engine rotation,
the PCM de-energizes the relay after’approximately
one second.
Along with the MFI relay, the fuel pump relay

AIR CONDITIONING CLUTCH RELAY
The PCM provides the ground path for the relay
coil. Relay operation is based on inputs the PCM
receives from the air conditioning switch. The PCM
deactivates the relay at vehicle start-up and also

CHARGING SYSTEM INDICATOR LAMP
The PCM controls operation of the charging system
indicator lamp located in the vehicle’s instrument
cluster. The PCM provides a ground to complete
the lamp circuit if the charging output falls below
a specified threshold.

The PCM also supplies the ground circuit for the
lamp circuit for 3 seconds after the ignition switch
is turned to the ON position and illuminates the
indicator lamp.
TACHOMETER
The PCM operates the tachometer on the instrument
panel. The PCM calculates engine RPM from the
crankshaft position sensor input.
