The annoying fuel pump noise isn't coming on when the key is turned on. I tried a couple of times to see if it would start, no luck. The car has a new fuel pump relay. What do I need to check first?
BTW, the FP noise is really nice when the car is running.... Thanks, Rick |

Post some pics of what you have. If the pump was wired by the PO to be on with the key, it's hard to speculate what he did or where he tied in to get power for your fuel pump. The relay board has nothing to do with the fuel pump, unless the PO tied into it somehow. For what it is worth, I think the oem wiring setup is the best way to go. Otherwise you are drawing excessive current thru the ignition switch, which wasn't designed for the extra load of the fuel pump.
