Fuel Pump Module Recall

ZSHO said:
This am after driving for roughly 15 min to get some coffee came home to grab my 10mm socket,Ratchet to inspect the module a bit further noticed it was a bit warm to the touch on a 60 degree morning with very limited driving on a full tank of gas......just makes you wonder the effect's if the conditions were greater.....wonder if installing some heat resistant tape on the metal might help to alleviate these conditions a tit. Z  :hmmm:

That would not be a bad idea. Too much heat or cold is an issue with just about anything electrical

I would install an auto circulation fan mounted inside the trunk to keep everything cool. 8) page 12. Z   Trunk Circulation Fan
• Fan is mounted on bottom side of rear deck behind 2nd row seat in trunk
• Trunk circulation fan pulls air from interior of vehicle into trunk
• Trunk is vented at bottom on driver and passenger sides
• Fan is wired complete and fully functional as vehicle is delivered – operates with “key on”
position – feed from underhood Battery Junction Box (BJB) “Run Start Feed #1” circuit/      https://www.fleet.ford.com/truckbbas/non-html/2013/P-010.pdf
 
Wouldn't the metal brace it's attached to act as a heat sink and actually help pull heat away from the module?

If Z has to get his FPCM replaced, maybe he can convince the SA to dissect the old part :)
True indeed :) But in the meantime it looks like i'll be driving with my rear seats down along with a full tank of gas until then.  Z
 
I replaced mine without a hitch when I was troubleshooting a non existent fuel problem..5 minute job... Including pulling the old one out of the box...

I actually just received my recall notice in the mail and here it is.  Z

I noticed on page 2 that you will be eligible for a reimbursement if you had this specific part changed prior to this recall but you will still need to get it inspected. Z

I'm trying to look into finding the part number on the so called module itself because as mentioned a while back it very vague and hazy and will keep ya'll updated on any findings. BTW think the curiosity is getting the best of me,LOL.  Z

I totally understand!  I just didn't see any sign of there ever being a number printed on mine like shown in the picture.

The wire that comes out of that module goes to a relay looking thing on the inside fender.  That thing does have printed part numbers.
 
I got my notice yesterday also.  Now I just need to find the receipt where I paid for my FPM to get fixed a few months ago so I can get refunded.

Is there any visible part on the module? Z

As in on the actual module or on the receipt, Z?  I'll do my best to dig up the work order and if need be I'll try to take out the seat to look for a p/n.
