quick question, can you get replacement relays for the fuel pump??

i have 2 relays together with a big fuse attached to each...i think these are leaving an open circuit cos checked the amps with a multi meter....

Red lead off battery, connecte red lead to batter from meter and black to red lead on car, check meter, noted the number, fitted car cable back to battery, same figures(this with ignition off), removed relays and checked again, ok, added relays and checked again, lower reading by 0.10..........started up, running checked battery output, healthy charging, stopped car, ignition off, checked battery again with meter and it constantly dropped by 0.01 every second.......

these relays have a 3C stamped on them and have 6 spade connectors...

any help?

Well i got 2 new relays, fitted it, seems fine....

now the 2 relays, 1 on the right is for the fuel pump, 1 on the left is for the a few bits(lambda sensor for one), i replaced this one and so far after a quick jaunt round the area no injector light.....maybe its solved....need another run out....will let ya know if it still comes on..

You will get a good run out on Monday..

well took it for a quick jaunt and the red light came back on...only when i slowed down tho and stayed on?????

might put old relay back in and see if it comes on and off.....

perseverance ???

kevin

did some testing last night....

all 4 plug leads are working good(put strobe light on and no unduw flickers)

all 4 plugs spark

removed MAP tube, engine wanted to die, stuck finger over end of cable and died, started backup, didnt run quite so good, put back on to MAP sensor and picked up and ran great(that works then)

removed relay(not the pump one) engine note chnaged and struggled a bit to run, put back on then ran fine again(thats working) so now i am stuck as to what to test next to try and get rid of the injector light staying on, car runs fine when on......

need to get it code read really but no one has a 3 pin reader....

kevin

Heres a strange one....

whent for a drive last night, light stayed on(with new relay fitted).......swapped relay for old one, drove again and light whent off, but came on when slowed down(like before)......

now that is weired.....

could it be the lambda sensor because it has no cat......... so gases cant backup like with a cat so it cant do its job propperly...it is a new one tho.....

kevin

If it runs fine regardless of what the light is doing, I think I would probably just take the bulb out. Have you checked all of the wiring is ok?

the wiring is as it came of the donor....but will check all area in case....would just like to figure it out really....

regards the ECU reading, you chaps that have a reader, what about this leade, its a fiat 3 pin adapter for a normal scanner....

Have you changed the Lambda sensor

yes that was the first thing to change....

as i say. process of elimination...

will keep a track of it as i go...
