2000 yukon XL 2500 no fuel pressure

Yukon died while driving down the highway like it ran out of fuel. Had 1/4 tank. No fuel pressure. I changed the fuel filter and no pressure. dropped the fueal tank and no power to fuel pump. Probed wires before connector to pump and only got 5v. I jumped the pump with 12v and it works and disconected fuel line at fuel rail for injectors and no fuel is coming out. Any ideas?

Have you checked to see if engine is firing? ignition module can go bad and you would loose fire and fuel at the same time. i replaced one on a chevy truck last week and it was located beside the ignition coil.

SOURCE: do you have to drop your tank to change fuel pump

Yes, you will need to remove the fuel tank. Replacing the fuel pump is a pain in the *** if you've never done it before.

SOURCE: Ran out of gas. After adding gas, GMC Yukon XL

Under the hood in the fuse box you need to check two fuses, PCM1 and PCM B. If both of those are fine the next step is to look at the right side of the engine along the fuel rail. Tiy;ll see a black cap. Remove the cap and turn the key to the on position and then press the valve inside to see if there's any fuel coming out.

It's quite possible the fuel pump burned up when you ran out of fuel. When you turn the key to the on position can you hear the pump activate and send the fuel to the injectors for initial start?

Most likely the oil pressure sensor is bad. Its located in the very rear of engine on top of bell housing area.

Why does my 2000 Yukon cut out while I"m driving?

I guess you mean engine dies? You need to determine if the issue is fuel or spark. If spark, it will die flat, fuel often will sputter as it dies. If you can hook up fuel pressure gauge so that you can see it while driving this might help. If you think it is spark issue, check coil and ignition module, crank/cam sensor. Is this random or is there some pattern, such as amount of time driven?

What's your problem? 2000 Yukon XL Yukon died while driving down the highway like it ran out of fuel. Had 1/4 tank. No fuel pressure.

You'll need to check the circuit from the fuel pump relay back to the pump. The computer grounds the relay.
If the pump is running the filter could be clogged.

Hello

The engine and the automatic transmission in this vehicle are computer controlled and in most cases when a fault occurs a fault code is stored in the memory of the computer control module. There are exception to this, such as the Mass Airflow Meter and fuel pressure problems. What must be done is to have all the basic testing done such as a scan of the system for fault codes as well as a check with a live data scanner tool for engine functions that are not within range of normal, a trained technician is required to know what is correct and what isn't, then based on careful diagnostics done from a factory repair manual the correct part is replaced or the wiring repaired or the computer replaced (known as the PCM), which is very rarely the problem. Other basic checks must be done as well such as mechanical problems with the engine as well as engine state of tune and mileage on the engine. The transmission can have mechanical issues as well such as no gear engagement at all or a failed pump or other pressure related problems.

It sounds like your fuel filter has got to the end of it's life and needs to be replaced. Once the fuel filter get's to dirty, the fuel pump can no longer keep the proper fuel pressure to the fuel injectors to have them work properly. The fuel filter should be replaced once a year or 30,000 miles to ensure that it's always clean. A dirty fuel filter will make the fuel pump work harder and shorten it's life time causing a costly fuel sending unit replacement. Good luck and be safe.
