P0231 CHEVROLET code description
The Engine Control Module (ECM) supplies voltage to the Fuel Pump Flow Control Module (FPCM) when the ECM detects that the ignition is on. The voltage from the ECM to the FPCM remains active for 2 seconds, unless the engine is in crank or run. While this voltage is being received, the FPCM supplies a varying voltage to the fuel tank pump module in order to maintain the desired fuel rail pressure.
