fuel pump not turning on

[rollavvti06]

car wont start i checked all fuses nd i pulled the main relay and i had it checked an it was fine my dad has 30+ yrs electrical exp found diagram and tested but the fuel pump i can not hear turning on we checked the connection at pump and it gets power on the connector for a second then nothing where else should i look

sounds like its time to replace the pump my friend...

[rollavvti06]

no the pump connector is not getting power from somewhere i think the pump is fine what else runs the power to the pump the main relay the ecu fuse but i have checked all fuses

Just simply checking the main relay wont tell you if its gone bad. Unless you know where to look. Replace the main relay with a good one and if the pump still wont work. Its probably the pump itself.

on the fuel rail there is a nut holding down a fuel line . back the nut off and turn over to the crank position , if fuel spray's out it's getting fuel up the the intake.hope this helps man.that's how i checked the fuel pump.the main relay does sound like it is bad. i think that's the only fuel relay we have right ?

check the power coming out of the main relay to the pump. clean the ground for the pump. its right behind the back seat near the sending unit cover. if you checked the main relay and its ok its pointless to replace it if theres a bad ground or a shorted wire.

Check the ECU fuse.

the ecu fuse wont be the problem.

so how the yellow power wire for the fuel pump at the connector is getting power for one second when turned on then it loses power

remove main relay

install a jumper wire from the black/yellow terminal(5) to the yellow terminal (7) on the connector

when looking at the tabs on the relay
- - X -
- - - -
8-6-X-2
7-5-3-1

there is no 4 tab

when you turn the key to the ignition ON position there should be voltage to the pump if there is then replace pump, if there is no voltage check/replace the relay
