Certified Cavalon 915is, N180RS, Lost lane A during takeoff R29, Petaluma Municipal Airport, California.
Lanes A and B are electric fuel pumps.
Lanes A and B passed run ups.
Fuel Pump 2 was activated prior to takeoff (part of my checklist)
Near end of runway, Lane A light went on and stayed on throughout aborted practice/tour flight.
Engine continued to run smoothly.
Advised traffic of possible engine problem and went into closed pattern back to R29.
Landed safely.
Turned off engine after clear of runway, restarted ran rough, turned engine off and pushed it back to the hangar.
Am becoming a test pilot.
