Fuel pump relay

Hello,

The fuel pump relay is Its in the underhood fuse/relay center. Here is a guide to help you test it and diagrams below to show the location.

Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

Are you cranking the engine while checking for voltage to the pump? What symptom are you trying to solve and what led up to the problem? Have you checked for spark?

Have you checked for spark or did you get stuck on the first thing you found missing? Fuel supply system failures account for about four percent of crank/ no-starts. Loss of spark accounts for about another one percent. Loss of spark and fuel accounts for ninety five percent of these no-starts. Once I know if you have spark, I can figure out where to start the diagnosis.

Also, you did not tell me if you are checking for voltage to the fuel pump while cranking the engine. You had better not have voltage to it if the engine is not rotating.

The fuel pump relay is on the right side of the firewall near the battery junction block cover. Item location no.3

I will be back tomorrow to see if you checked for spark or answered any of my other questions. You should have zero volts feeding the fuel pump unless the engine is rotating.

VIN code? California model? See image.

Yes, the VIN code is part of the VIN#.
Have him spray carburetor cleaner into the air intake and see if that keeps the engine running. If so, he has a fuel delivery issue. No matter which engine (VIN code) it is, the fuel pump relay is located in or near the main relay/fuse/junction box. The code basically tells us which location in the box it is.

You said he mentioned the fuel pressure was low. How low? Can he rent or borrow a fuel pressure tester from a parts store to check? Have him listen for the relay and pump activating when he turns the key to On and Start. Have him use a meter or test light to see if the fuel pump (in the fuel tank, at the top) is getting power.

On firewall passenger side two relays bolted to wall pump on right.
