P2632Fuel Pump B Control Circuit/Open

  • Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
  • Turns on the check-engine light
  • Matters for the ITP
How the car detects it
Fuel pump B is a second pump beside the main one: a transfer pump between two tanks, an in-line booster or a second in-tank pump. P2632 reports an open in its control circuit. On the 6.6 L LML Duramax with dual tanks, GM's 2014 table 14OBDG10 drives the transfer pump relay through a low-side driver and sets the code as Type B after 3 s above 200 kOhm. In the 2020 diesel table 20OBDG04 it is a Type C code without MIL after 20 of 25 samples. Bulletin PIT5212B on 2013 Silverado/Sierra 3500 chassis cabs asks for a scan tool update before diagnosis. VW sets it below 0.8 mA for the in-line pump of 2014 Golf and Beetle; Ford's 2020-2023 summary uses P2632 for driver feedback faults of pump module B.
