If anyone needs information on dropping your LR4 tank to replace the fuel pump, let me know...
I'll post a separate thread with info about the pump replacement. This is fairly straightforward, although not fun due to limited space, short wires, and short pipe lengths. Note the old, original design tank flange has the non-replaceable filter integrated into the flange. The updated flange... -
If anyone needs information on dropping your LR4 tank to replace the fuel pump, let me know...
With the tank extracted, I then disconnected the vent pipes from the tank. This is where I ran into additional problems. The so-called quick-connect pipe fittings have no seal to prevent dirt & dust from blocking the movement of the release mechanism. One of the fittings could not be released by... -
If anyone needs information on dropping your LR4 tank to replace the fuel pump, let me know...
Once the tank is near empty, the next trick is getting the tank disconnected and lowered out of the chassis. Those quick-connect pipe fittings are poorly named. More like torture-connect. When you can't easily get your hands/fingers on the fitting, it's a PITA to squeeze hard enough while also... -
If anyone needs information on dropping your LR4 tank to replace the fuel pump, let me know...
I recently pulled the tank for pump replacement, due to a different OBD-II fault code (details in this thread). The info and photos from @thebruce were helpful. The factory service manual (FSM) was generally NOT helpful. I'm shocked at how bad the FSM is. Many steps have no text description, and... -
V8 engine shuts off after 4 minutes, code P0627-00 (6C) Fuel pump A control circuit/open
Filled the tank yesterday. So far, no leaks, no fuel odor. :rock: -

V8 engine shuts off after 4 minutes, code P0627-00 (6C) Fuel pump A control circuit/open
Forgot to mention: When installing the tank, I double-checked each quick-connect pipe fitting. Or so I thought. Of course when running the fuel pump priming sequence (thanks for the tip, @scapistron!), I heard an odd sound. After a few seconds I figured I should check, and yup, raw gas was... -
V8 engine shuts off after 4 minutes, code P0627-00 (6C) Fuel pump A control circuit/open
Success! Problem solved. :thrasher: Root cause was a failing electrical connection at the flange, INSIDE the tank. Photos attached below. Had I known what the normal resistance of the pump motor was, I could have figured this out much sooner. The new VDO pump assembly measures 0.3 ohms. At the... -
How to Test Low Pressure Fuel Pump?
Update... there is no test port on the LR4 with V8 engine (probably not the SCV6 either). No way to attach a gauge without getting really creative and inserting a custom-fabricated "T" into the quick-connect fitting ahead of the fuel tank. Also doesn't sound like SDD can read the sensor, so... -

Photos of the new aftermarket "OEM" sensor from FCP. And, a screenshot from MicroCat showing the sensor & fuel manifold in the parts diagram. -

How-To DIY: Replacing LR4 fuel system low pressure sensor
While chasing a fuel system problem (details in this thread), one of the possible solutions was a faulty low-pressure sensor in the fuel supply pipes from the tank to the engine. Since a new sensor was ~$40 it seemed like it was worth a shot before dropping the fuel tank, which apparently... -
Block Heater for LR4
Even if there are no issues starting in cold weather, it's REALLY nice getting heat almost immediately after a cold start. I'd like to add the block heater to our LR4 but based on other threads I've seen, the installation process ain't fun. :hmmmm: -
V8 engine shuts off after 4 minutes, code P0627-00 (6C) Fuel pump A control circuit/open
Another update. I was able to finally drain the tank. I made one last attempt today (after spending 20-30 mins yesterday, unsuccessfully) to get the siphon hose into the tank. Today it worked! But, I was only able to siphon 6 gallons out (estimated 14 gallons remaining). Next was pulling the... -
V8 engine shuts off after 4 minutes, code P0627-00 (6C) Fuel pump A control circuit/open
Replacement fuel pump has arrived, other parts are in transit. New problem: I can't siphon the 20 gallons of gasoline out of the tank. I can insert a hose almost 5 feet down the filler pipe, but the hose won't contact liquid. And it won't go any further than ~4.8 feet down the filler pipe. The... -
V8 engine shuts off after 4 minutes, code P0627-00 (6C) Fuel pump A control circuit/open
The new low pressure sensor arrived yesterday from FCP (link), appears to be OEM and made in Mexico. Replacing that stupid thing is a total b itch of a job due to ZERO access room. There's barely space to fit one hand, let alone 2 hands and 2 tools. I'll post a separate thread with photos, since... -
V8 engine shuts off after 4 minutes, code P0627-00 (6C) Fuel pump A control circuit/open
I connected a volt meter and observed ~14.2v after a cold start. Voltage remained in the low 14's. Although I wasn't watching the meter when the engine died, I don't think the voltage did anything funky. I think the alternator is OK for now, there were no other codes or voltage-related... -
How to Test Low Pressure Fuel Pump?
Resurrecting this old thread. I have the same questions: Does a test port exist for the low pressure side? I don't want to go on a snipe hunt. GAP IID only shows fuel rail (high pressure) data. Seems like a pretty big miss, since there is a low pressure sensor that transmits a low-pressure... -
V8 engine shuts off after 4 minutes, code P0627-00 (6C) Fuel pump A control circuit/open
If the truck was still running normally, I'd probably consider this for the recall... but right now I'd be stuck paying the indy shop to fix the current shutoff problem, and that's not in the budget. If a new sensor fixes the 4-minute shutoff, then yep, I might look into having the recall done... -
V8 engine shuts off after 4 minutes, code P0627-00 (6C) Fuel pump A control circuit/open
Nope, the recall is not done yet. I moved 10 hours away from the dealer in early 2022, just before the parts became available. I figure if I have to drop the tank and open it up for inspection, I might as well do the tank flange upgrade myself. I'll dig up the part number for that sensor next... -
V8 engine shuts off after 4 minutes, code P0627-00 (6C) Fuel pump A control circuit/open
@MellonRover - I connected a voltmeter when starting, voltage went up to 14.8v and seemed normal. When the engine died, I wasn't watching the voltage to see if there was a spike just before shutdown, but there were no other codes besides the usual P0627. @Rover Range - the replacement FPDM made... -
V8 engine shuts off after 4 minutes, code P0627-00 (6C) Fuel pump A control circuit/open
I managed to remove the trim panel to access the FPDM as shown in the diagram above. Of course this is located behind the rear AC unit which must be unbolted and gently pulled forward to allow access - VERY limited access! - to the FPDM. What a miserable job, and lousy place to mount this... -
V8 engine shuts off after 4 minutes, code P0627-00 (6C) Fuel pump A control circuit/open
Thanks, @itsaguything! That is helpful. The V8 manual had NO explanation for this code. Interesting that the info was "added" to the SCV6 manual. Looks like at a minimum I need to drop the tank and inspect the wiring connectors at the pump flange. :ahhhhh: -
V8 engine shuts off after 4 minutes, code P0627-00 (6C) Fuel pump A control circuit/open
USA-spec 2010 LR4 with 5.0L V8 engine, 160kmi. No prior issues with fuel system. Truck died about 4 miles from our house after a cold start, about 4 minutes driving time. Would not restart, just cranked at normal speed, coughed and sputtered, but would not stay running. Towed home and now I'm...
