Hello! The P1237 is more than likely a bad fuel pump..However here are a couple of issues to eliminate first...In the trunk on the drivers side directly behind the taillight is a Red Button...This is the inertia fuel shut off switch...Push down on the Button to be sure it is reset...Try to start the car...If it still does not start...On the fuel rail is a cap much similar to a tire valve stem cover..It's the fuel pressure release...Push in the center and fuel should squirt out...If not the fuel pump is defective and needs to be replaced...

SOURCE: ford mustang gt 2005 dtc codes

B1318 are related to low battery voltage .
B1202 is fuel sender circuit open.
P0463 is fuel level sensor circuit, (high input.)
If your gauge appears to be working o.k. all I would do for now is double check my voltage at battery with engine off & running, to make sure all is good there, erase codes & start fresh. The cheap way to erase is to remove neg (-) cable form battery for about 5 min., or more & then reconnect. You eill lose your memory on radio stations & have to re-set them though, otherwise have someone hook-up scan tool to erase them. Is vehicle starting & running o.k. at this time?

How I to solve a P1237 Code ?

I would start by making sure the harness was not pinched during the install of the tank. I believe the FPMD is under the rear right seat or on that side, in the trunk.

2001 vovlo v7o xc trouble codes p0014 and p1237

DTC P1014 - B Camshaft Position - Timing Over-Advanced or System Performance (Bank 1).
At engine start-up the control module checks that the camshaft is in the correct position in relation to the crankshaft. Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) ECM-62 is stored if the control module detects the camshaft in an incorrect position on start up.

Possible source:
Camshaft cogs incorrectly seated
Incorrectly installed camshaft pulley
Contact resistance in the terminals.

Condition:
Malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) lit
The engine misfires.



DTC P1237 - Turbo Control Valve
Looks like the turbo is not producing enough boost. Check the waste gate hoses and the waste gate itself to see if its bound up. If the waste gate is working right, I would suspect a bad turbo.

This is an advanced level repair. You may want to have Volvo do the diagnostics on this one. Your code is for low turbo boost pressure. The waste gate is a big silver actuator on the turbo. It has vacuum hoses going to it. See if they are all hooked up. Also see if you can move the lever that the actuator pushes on. If its jammed that may be your problem.


Hope this helps and just keep in mind that your feedback is important and I'll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using FixYa.

How do I fix code P1237 on ford taurus sel

P1237 - Fuel Pump Secondary Circuit Malfunction

Electronic Returnless Fuel Systems (ERFS) utilize a Fuel Pump Driver Module (FPDM) to control fuel pressure. The PCM uses a Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor (FRP) for feedback. The PCM outputs a duty cycle to the FPDM to maintain the desired fuel rail pressure. During normal operation, the PCM will output a FP duty cycle from 5% to 51%. The FPDM will run the fuel pump at twice this duty cycle, e.g. if the PCM outputs a 42% duty cycle, the FPDM will run the fuel pump at 84%. If the PCM outputs a 75% duty cycle, the FPDM will turn off the fuel pump.

If the FPDM does not out any diagnostic signal, (0 or 100% duty cycle), the PCM sets a P1233 DTC. This DTC is set if the FPDM loses power. This can also occur if the Inertia Fuel Switch is tripped.

If the FPDM outputs a 25% duty cycle, it means that the fuel pump control duty cycle is out of range. This may occurs if the FPDM does not receive a valid control duty cycle signal from the PCM. The FPDM will default to 100% duty cycle on the fuel pump control output. The PCM sets a P1235 DTC.

If the FPDM outputs a 75% duty cycle, it means that the FPDM has detected an open or short on the fuel pump control circuit. The PCM sets a P1237 DTC.
