G60 fuel pump/relay????...help anyone?

[G Charged 0]

ok, the g60 is refusing to start, just simply parked up, and the next time i went to start it, it dont want to play game.

Normally when i turn the ignition on i can hear the fuel pump relay click and the pump whirring for a couple seconds, however at the moment i hear no whirring, the engine will turn over on the starter motor...but as if there is no fuel...

 

i have found a break in a black wire that goes to the lambda,...which appeared to be an earth, im not sure if this is linked...as i have read the lambda and fuel pump wiring share a circuit, i have also tried bridging the relay connection with a bit of wire and that made no difference either...

 

the car done this a couple of days ago aswel...but sumhow i fiddled with a few stuff and the pump started to prime and she started...which is why i dont think the pump is kackerd...so i dont know...ideas????

Have you checked your fuses???

 

If so then the FP relay is knackered - try tapping it to free it up

does the isv buzz when you turn the ignition on?

the isv is buzzing yes, ive checked the fuel pump fuse and replaced it...ive also tried tapping the relay, but i might try that again

 

is there any way i can check the pump itself?...like conecting certain pins straight to a battery to see if it turns on?

pin 85 on the fp relay has to be grounded to to turn on the fuel pump.

The ecu supplies a short to ground to facilitate this.

The pump should prime when you turn the key to the run position, it is audible and will cut off after a few seconds, so if you cant hear it its not running.

 

Easiest way to check is put a multimeter on the pump end of the terminals and see if you are getting volts down to it, if not then its going to be a issue between furthur up the wiring or the relay.

ok...i got the car to start again

 

i have voltage down at the pump, tried to take the pump out, coudnt, so with the pump cover off i tapped the pump a couple times and it allowed the pump to prime, however i have just found that the alternator doesnt work, so i needs to get me another alternator. i hate corrados. lol

 

cheers for your help lads!, guess i have a tempermental fuel pump, will have to source one now...but im gona change the fuel filter aswel so the pumps under less strain.

Think there is one on e-aby at the moment, you will need a new sender though.
