Default P1693 Code

Anyone have any idea what this code means. I know its for the companion module. But I have no clue what it is and the truck is still running fine. The code comes and goes also. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hey man i'm don't remember what that code is, but it came up on my programmer when my injection pump went out. I believe it was interference between the fuel pump (lift pump) and the injection pump. In our model and year trucks the stocklift pumps did not deliever enough fuel to the injection pumps and the lift pump will go out first then your injection pump will go which is very costly, I just went through it about three weeks ago.What you can do is upgrade to a carter 120gph lift pump or the fass system (fass is expensive though like $700) or you can do what I did and run two stock lift pumps. If you have one stock lift pump on your truck right nowI would get another one on there before yours goes out which will deffinitely lead to a fried injection pump. To find out what that code deffinitely is though you can call the dodge dealership and they will tell you what it is.

I have a BD Aux. Lift Pump put in. For $250 plus $50 for a fuel pressure indicator light. Idle runs 20 psi and WOT 12-14 psi.

Yes I also would like to know how 2 pumps are plumbed. I have always thought about having a backup lift pump incase one goes bad. I got the idea from my friends airplane which has 3 fuel pumps, 1 main and 2 backups.
