my fuel pump also goes on when hazard switch is not pulled but key is turned.

the circuits have got to be connected somehow???

could this be a faulty relay board?

or could it be that I put a wire on the wrong spot on the fuse box?

my engine is a carbed sbc v8.

i'm using the 2 harness wires to power my fuel pump.

thanks
jim
