My fuel pump was running continuously with the key in the "on" position, so I found the old thread dealing with wiring the dual relay properly and testing the Air Flow Sensor and followed the diagnostics and testing stated in there. Air Flow Sensor tested fine, wiring as specified, and now the pump runs with no key in the ignition. I think the pump was re-wired to run through the ignition switch, which I know was wrong. Now I think I may have a bad ignition side on the dual relay. The relay has two numbers on it. Ignition side says 071 906 059. The FI side says 0332 514 129. All connectors are designated on the relay with the same numbers in the same positions as the 120 that the old thread used. The old thread was great to follow as long as things went as planned. In this case, the result was a failure to operate correctly once all the wiring was reconfigured. Any help out there?

Sorry, I'm too lazy to re-read that old thread. Plus, not all problems fit the same mold, yours may take a different direction. I guess my first question would be, does the car run? The fuel pump is turned on by 2 sources, one being the contacts within the AFM (which energizes the dual relay) and the other being the ignition switch in the "start" position, which also energizes the dual relay. You say the fuel pump runs, as soon as you turn the key to the "on" position? If so, let's try to isolate the problem. The fuel pump should not be activated with the ignition switch in the "on" position, unless the car is running. Go ahead and turn the key to the "on" position, as you stated earlier, the fuel pump turns on. Pull the connector off the AirFlow meter, does the pump turn off? If it doesn't turn off, yank out the dual relay. After yanking the dual relay, did the fuel pump turn off? If so, measure pin 86a at the dual relay connector, (it should be the yellow wire). Do you have 12vdc here? Can you post a pics of your dual relay, and your setup?
