A couple of weeks back during our very hot weather my car just dies while I'm driving. After figuring out that the fuel pump relay was not clicking and I had no power to the pump I chased everything I could using Brad Anders article. I had an extra relay board so I swapped it just for fun , hooked everything back -up and nothing. I tried again a few minutes later and everything worked! So today I start the car for the first time in weeks. Immediately when I switch on the key I hear the relay click, everything sounds fine except the pump runs continuously ( not the 1.5 seconds that it should). I crank the starter it fires up, I turn the key to off , the engine is still running. I can pull the key completely out and the engine still runs. I think I need the tumblers & electrical portion but don't know where to buy? |

, everything sounds fine except the pump runs continuously ( not the 1.5 seconds that it should).....I can pull the key completely out and the engine still runs. How did you shut the engine off? The pump running for 1.5 seconds is controlled by the ecu not by the switch. Sounds like the problem is something else. |

The pump running for 1.5 seconds is controlled by the ecu not by the switch. Sounds like the problem is something else. I turned the key numerous times,wiggled it around and I then could get the pump to run correctly. The key could be pulled out from the # 2 switch position , this is why I think the tumblrs are bad also. I stuck a small screwdriver in the lock last night and heard a little "tink" spring sound , after this the key could not be pulled from # 2 position. I popped the clutch to kill it. |
