so i replaced the fuel pump and it was working fine than i replaced the fuel relay and it ran good than all of a sudden it just turned off and i put the old relay in and now it will not start. it starts for a few sec and than stalls. i dont hear it prime when i turn the ignition on but when i replaced the new relay with the old one again it primed started ran for like 4 seconds and than stalled and woulndt start again. and its puttering but will; not stay on the fuse doesnt blow or anything just is being a pain in the ass anyone got any suggestions. also is it easy to blow the relay iff at all possible. any help or guidence would be appreciated

 

it still seems like a short somewhere to me...maybe in the pdc itself(if thats possible) my only suggestion is to hardwire the pump to the engine run position from the ignition switch...either that, or replace the PDC and its whole harness, or trace every inch of the wiring(inside the PDC and out) to find the short...the relay should be rather hard to blow(with all the fuel issues I have ever had...and I have had a lot, I have yet to blow a relayc) check all your engine grounds as well, just on the off chance, shorts are the worst, I know, but you have to keep plugging away at it till you find out whats wrong(or get sick of it and bypass it)

 

well the thing is that it didnt blow or stop working untill i replaced it than it just was not working at all you know. i dont know what the hell is going on i am pretty good with cars but damn this sucks

 

also after the car is in the on position the fuel pump doesnt come on but once it starts puttering it starts to turn on and stuff its really gay

 

so...no priming pulse then? not sure what that means(I've had it so it primes, but doesnt continue to pump once the priming is over...that turned out to be a type of crank sensor issue though)...try swapping the ASD(auto shut down) relay for the fuel pump relay and see what happens

 

where is that located? the relay is just a little black plug? where is that located at and ill look at it

 

is there another name for this relay??? i just hate it cause it wasnt have probelms till i replaced the relay now it wont start at all but when i put the old one back in no start no nothign also it doesnt primes as i said i am just tired of this piece of shit.. let me know where that is located please and another name for it thanks alot

 

its the ASD, auto shut down relay...right next to the fuel pump relay, its tied into the same system somehow, I'm pretty sure anyway....it shows the location on the lid to the PDC
