- If a prolonged crank is required to start vehicle, fuel pump relay may be faulty. To verify, start engine. With engine running, disconnect oil pressure switch (fuel pump back-up circuit). If engine stalls, fuel pump relay is faulty. If vehicle continues to run, relay is okay. Check for other causes of prolonged crank.
- To test fuel pump relay, disconnect fuel pump relay. Refer to COMPONENT LOCATIONSΒ . Apply battery voltage and ground to fuel pump relay winding terminals (control and ground).
- Using an ohmmeter, check continuity between fuel pump relay control and ground terminals. Continuity should exist. If continuity does not exist, fuel pump relay is defective.
- To by-pass fuel pump relay on vehicle (fuel pump not operating), turn ignition off. Disconnect fuel pump relay connector. Using a fused jumper wire, connect fuel pump test connector to positive side of battery. Fuel pump should run.
- If fuel pump runs, check for faulty connections to relay or replace defective relay. To locate fuel pump test connector, refer to COMPONENT LOCATIONSΒ .
