U046DInvalid Data Received From Fuel Pump Control Module B

U046D means the engine control module (ECM) or another supervisory module has received invalid or missing data from the fuel pump control module B over the vehicle's controller area network (CAN) bus. The computer detected a message that was out of range, corrupted, or absent when expected, so it cannot trust the fuel pump control module's status.
