Candidate cause (the documents say what to do)

Fuel pressure regulator buzz / hum after replacement (check fuel pump feed voltage drop and connector crimps)

Applies to: 4.8L, 5.3L, 6.0L only

Some vehicles may have a hum / buzz noise at idle after fuel pressure regulator replacement.

Engineering introduced a redesigned fuel pump connector for service in December 2004 (bulletin 04-06-04-088C).

What to do

  1. If the vacuum line is removed from the regulator, the noise may change or stop completely.
  2. Check the power and ground feeds to the fuel pump for voltage drops, key on engine off, all the way from the battery posts.
  3. Other possible voltage drop points include the UBEC, fuel pump relay, the frame ground and the battery cable grounds.
  4. If excessive resistance is found at the crimps, replace the crimp-and-seal splice sleeves for the affected circuits.
