•  If there is no continuity, the circuit is open. Repair or replace the harness.
―  Fuel pump unit terminal C and fuel pump relay terminal E
―  Fuel pump unit terminal D and body ground


Short circuit

•  If there is continuity, the circuit is shorted. Repair or replace the harness.
―  Fuel pump unit terminal C and body ground
―  Fuel pump unit terminal D and power supply
Note
•  The fuel static pressure inspection cannot be performed because the pressure regulator is integrated with the fuel pump unit.
