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?

Good to hear 0 voltage on 86a, it means that your car wiring isn't screwed up. Bad news having 0 ohms across pin 88y and 88d. The internal contacts within the dual relay should be open and have infinite resistance. This explains why the fuel pump runs with the key in or out of the ignition switch. You may be able to open up the dual relay, and see why the contact is stuck shut, or buy a new dual relay.

I have looked at autoatlanta and pelican and can't seem to find them on either site. Would NAPA carry something like this? Maybe my local Import Parts Warehouse guys might have one. Thank you for your help. |
