Arg ! What now ?! - !Update! Part Number needed
So far, when one thing goes wrong with my car other little bits start to go wrong as well.
I can't really argue as most of the bits that are faulting are the original parts and have done a fair few miles.
Anyway ...
Last week I found that the alternator went to the big electrical place in the sky, and wasnt charging the battery any more ... so I replaced that with a reconditioned unit. Great.
Now, I went to start the car about an hour ago. Disabled the imobiliser, turned the key ... wait a min, what happened to the fuel pump priming ? Ok ... turn the key, oh look car won't start.
I tried again, no sound from the fuel pump priming at all. The engine tries to turn over, but assuming the pump isnt working the car wont fire up (the lack of fuel doesnt help)
Could the fuel pump of gone to the fuel pump related place in the sky aswell ? Or could it be something else ?
---- Edit
It was the fuel pump relay. It looks like someone had attacked (had trouble) with it before, and the soler had split. The connections been resoldered, but I need to get a replacement.
I phoned LSUK for it, and they said they need the part number as their list says Ford or Vauxall (not model).
So I phoned the Ford Parts dept, and they don't know what a fuel pump relay is.
So ... does anyone know the part number ?
Ta,
