Fuel Pump Resistor (3.5RL)

  1. Fuel pump resistor is located in the left corner of the trunk. Disconnect fuel pump resistor 2-pin connector. Turn ignition on and within 2 seconds, measure voltage between ground and fuel pump resistor connector terminal No. 2 (Yellow wire). See WIRING DIAGRAMS article. If battery voltage is present for 2 seconds after ignition is turned on, go to next step. If battery voltage is not present as specified, check PGM-FI relay. See PGM-FI MAIN RELAY CIRCUIT TESTING  .
  2. Turn ignition switch off. Using a fused jumper wire, connect fuel pump resistor connector terminals No. 1 (Black/Yellow wire) and No. 2 (Yellow wire). Turn ignition switch to START position. If engine does not start, go to next step. If engine starts, replace fuel pump resistor.
  3. Turn ignition off. Disconnect fuel unit sub-harness Gray, 10-pin connector located in front of trunk, above fuel pump access panel, next to Gray, 20-pin connector. Turn ignition on and within 2 seconds, measure voltage between ground and sub-harness connector terminal No. 7 (Black/Yellow wire). If battery voltage is present for 2 seconds after ignition is turned on, check fuel pump. If battery voltage is present as specified, repair open in wire between fuel pump resistor terminal No. 2 and fuel pump sub-harness connector terminal No. 7.
