Hi,

The code is indicating there is no signal from the fuel module. This could be a few different issues. For example, it could be a wiring issue, the module, or even the inertia cut off switch. (see pic 1 for description).

Here is what I suggest first. The inertia switch (fuel cut off) is located in the trunk and can be reset if it has tripped. Try resetting that first. If you look at pic 2, it shows location.

Do this first and let me know what you find.

Take care and God Bless,

Joe
