P1255 CHEVROLET Meaning

The Engine Control Module (ECM) provides voltage to the fuel pump control module when the ECM detects that the ignition is turned on. The voltage from the ECM to the fuel pump control module remains active for 2 seconds, unless the engine is running or cranking. While this voltage is being received, the fuel pump control module provides variable voltage to the fuel tank pump module to maintain the desired fuel pressure. The Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will be set if the fuel pump control module detects an overheating fault.
