Also, my experience shows that it doesn't always throw a code. And check it out before anyone fools you in going to more trouble and expense dropping the tank and replacing the fuel pump. I urge everyone who has this system in their Ford to check on it and replace/modify it so that it won't strand you like it did to me. I'm going to bed liner the metal part and make a flexible plastic "semi fender liner" to shield it from road spray. This, and at a fraction of what it cost at Ford. The Dorman's replacement that I got from Amazon- $58, at the recommendation of the F150 Forum, has two rubber isolators that keep it away from the sheet metal bracket and allow air circulation. I'm going to take further precautions, or, as my wife always tells me, overkill, to prevent this from ever stranding me. Ford could and should have taken a lot more care in where it mounted it and protecting it from the elements. This module is the "brain" of your fuel pump, the thing that eliminates the return type pumps from modern injection systems.
Ford fuel pump driver module problems Pc#
The rot hole that was formed meant water seeped through making contact with the PC board inside, and the oxidized powdered metal that also made it's way inside finally shorted the board out. What's even more amazing is how much the force of the corrosion of the dissimilar pot metal pressing against this sheet metal bracket actually warped the snot out of said bracket. There's not even a suggestion of a fender liner or some kind of baffle to protect it. First sign of trouble were the two 8MM bolts breaking off. Need to remove spare to make it easier to get to.
Ford fuel pump driver module problems driver#
On my '05 EXPY, it's mounted to a sheet metal bracket near the line of fire of the driver side rear wheel throwing road spray. Symptoms of the damaged fuel pump driver module are as follows: Hard starting or no start Lack of power Code P1233 Fuel Pump Driver Module (FDM) Offline Timing Chain, Tensioners, and the Variable Valve Timing Problems The engine sounds strange You can hear a lot of knocking noises on acceleration, cold startup, or when you let off the throttle. This trouble code detects that the fuel rail/system pressure is too low. The engine may throw a P0087 trouble code. Before taking anything apart, check to see if your engine’s computer has any trouble codes saved in it. The F150's supposedly had more problems with corrosion being mounted directly to the frame. There are physical signs that you can feel when your F350’s fuel pump is going out. This thing looks like so many that I have seen researching the F150 Forum. Better than that, hey Ford, HOW 'BOUT MAKING IT A SERVICE BULLETIN?
Kinda new to this forum, but I must respectively suggest this issue be made a Sticky.
Module will prevent the vehicle from being dead in On both F150's and Expy's without older fuel return The moderators should make this topic a sticky,īecause it's very common in severe weather areas
Newly designed rubber bushings on the mounting screws help to sustain years of service.I did a write up on my experience with this on 1/13. I asked them if they had unplugged things while. He goes on to say that the only thing this points them to is that 'the fuel pump control module may need to be replaced' but, ' the module is working OK at this time'. Powder-coated for high corrosion resistance and long-lasting durability. I took it to the ford dealership where I purchased it from and the service guy says the pulled codes were P0131 P0132 and P025B. Re-engineered to address failure points in the original materials and design, Dorman’s Fuel Pump Driver Module is
