Fuel Pump A Low Flow/Performance
The car's fuel pump isn't working as well as it should, so the engine might not be getting enough fuel to run properly.
This code indicates that the fuel pump is not delivering the expected amount of fuel to the engine, which can affect engine performance.
The P2635 code is triggered when the Engine Control Module (ECM) detects that the fuel pump 'A' is not delivering the expected fuel flow or performance. This could be due to a malfunction in the pump itself, a blockage in the fuel line, or an issue with the electrical circuit that powers the pump.
• Check for fuel leaks or blockages in the fuel line.
• Test the fuel pump pressure and flow.
• Inspect the electrical connections and wiring to the fuel pump.
• Replace the faulty fuel pump.
• Clean or replace the fuel filter.
• Repair or replace damaged wiring or connectors.
• Fuel pressure gauge
• Multimeter
• Wrench set

This code has been more commonly reported in vehicles with higher mileage or those that have not had regular maintenance.
Moderate – The vehicle may still be drivable, but performance issues should be addressed to prevent further damage.
Driving with a faulty fuel pump can lead to engine performance issues and may increase the risk of stalling, which can be dangerous.
• Engine running
• Fuel pump operation
The fuel pump is typically located inside the fuel tank.
