Defect

The material of the engine wiring harness connected to the fuel pump is improper. Normal vehicle movement during use can degrade the contact condition of the connector terminals, causing a continuity fault. As a result, the pump may fail to operate, leading to engine stall while driving or difficulty starting the engine.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the wiring harness connected to the fuel pump connector with the corrected part. Additionally, inspect the connector on the fuel pump side and the connector on the vehicle-side harness; if discoloration, melting, or other damage is found, replace the pump flange and the vehicle-side harness.

状況

燃料ポンプにおいて、ポンプにつながるワイヤハーネスの材質が不適切なため、車両使用過程の動きでコネクタ端子の接触状態が悪化し、導通不良となることがある。そのため、ポンプが作動せず、走行中のエンジン停止や始動不良が発生するおそれがある。

改善措置

全車両、燃料ポンプのコネクタ部につながるワイヤハーネスを対策品に交換する。更に、燃料ポンプ側のコネクタ、車両側ハーネスのコネクタを点検し、変色や溶損などの損傷が認められる場合には、ポンプフランジ、車両側ハーネスを交換する。
