Fuel Pump Control Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
In the diagram below, when the engine is cranked, current flows from terminal ST of the ignition switch to
the starter relay (Marking: ST) coil and also current flows to terminal STA of ECM (STA signal).
When the STA signal and NE signal are input to the ECM, Tr is turned ON, current flows to coil of the circuit
opening  relay (Marking: C/OPN), the relay switches on, power is supplied to the fuel pump and the fuel pump
operates.
While the NE signal is generated (engine running), the ECM keeps Tr ON (circuit opening relay ON) and the
fuel pump also keeps operating.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
TOYOTA hand-held tester:
1 Connect TOYOTA  hand-held  tester, and check operation of fuel pump.
PREPARATION:1
(a) Connect  the TOYOTA hand-held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON and push the TOYOTA hand-
held tester main switch ON.
(c) Use the ACTIVE TEST mode to operate the fuel pump.
CHECK:
Check that the pulsation damper screw rises up when the fuel
pump is operated by the TOYOTA  hand-held  tester.
OK:
The pulsation damper screw rises up.
OK Check for starter signal circuit 
(See page DI-142).
