i removed the fuel pump relay and then the fuse while the engine was running, and now i have no spark or fuel pump, i have replaced ECU, still no joy, everything else has been checked, what else could it be?

 

in the boot well unfer the spare wheel there is a white trip ou button push it and try again

this is activated if the car goes over a sharp bump in the road or if the car tilts

 

its not the cut of switch, the problem is causing the FUEL PUMP and the ENGINE SPARKING to not work.

 

when the engine is turning over there is no sparking in the spark plugs, and the fuel pump is not kicking in also....

 

the fuel pump does not prim itself when ignition is turned on?if so check crankshaft sensor and its connector

 

the fuel pump does not prime it self, the crack sensor is ok, i did have a problem with the crack sensor before and the fuel pump still primed it self.

though when the crank sensor went it caused it not to spark, which is happening now, i have no sparking and no fuel pump, but when this happened the car was WORKING FINE, it was running on my drive, i pulled the fuel pump fuse out/relay WHILST the engine was running, it stalled, i put the fuse back in, went to start it, NOTHING. turns over but there is no fuel pump and NO SPARKING???

its soooooo strange?

 

that is strange maybe if u have one fitted the alarm/immobiliser has cut in?when u pulled the fuse out?might need resetting?

 

tried that mate, ripped the all the ALARM/ IMMOIBLISER OUT!

an eletrcian said it was the ECU
today we tried a ECU i got from ebay, NOTHING???

so its got a diff ECU
no alarm
no IMMOBLISER
and it still dont work

 

u checked the relay,maybe its stuck?

 

is there a relay that would cause the fuel pump and engine sparking to both stop at same time?

 

the relay u said u pulled out?might of stuck!

 

we tried other relays, its a pain in the arse ?

 

defo strange only thing i can maybe think of ti check,is where u have pulled out the fuse/relay make sure u have not pushed the terminals out inside the fuse box!?

 

they where in single fuse holders.

 

hmm maybe check your phase sensor wiring,might be worth a try

 

it shouldnt be the wiring as the car was only idling when i pulled the fuse out, i dont see how pulling a fuse can make wiring faulty? but then again i dont see how pulling a fuse can bring a car to a exspensive stand still...

 

it is a weird one!but still worth a check!

 

cheers mate, i have a look, i only had an engine rebuild 3 weeks ago, its a joke.

 

hope its something silly fella

 

i ripped me alarm out
immobliser out
got another ecu.
if it is something silly, im gonna set it on fire with the amount of time and money spent on it, lol

 

the joys of cossies

 

i've even put an add on ebay item: 220191534378 asking for help, its got a picture of it to
full body kit the lot

 

join and ask on here as well www.fordrsforum.co.uk

 

thanks

 

nice cossie as well

 

thanks

 

I wouldn't count on the second hand ecu working ive had this problem and a mate popped round in his cossy and we swapped ecu,s and hey presto it fired up i would check it against a working ecu

 

the bloke i got it off said it was working? lol?

 

Exactly Try another Lol....Ohh and make sure the ecu is bolted into its cage (earthed) -

 

hi there ecu will work even if its out of the holder, i had to fix my friends 4wd cossie that had lost its spark and fuel pump,this ended up being the red wire with a white stripe in the passenger footwell near the realy rail this is the live feed for the ecu it goes into a fuse holder with a 15 amp fuse good luck check live feed to ecu or blown fuse.

 

thank you will try

 

i had the same problem last yr and i never found the problem, i took a feed via a relay and switch to coil and this gave power to pump and injector the lot and it started straight away,i tried my ecu on my cousin car and it was working fine replaced crank sensor,phase sensor ampplifer and they were all fine

 

Have you checked the relay for the engine ecu. This relay is also a yellow one. I had a fault on my cossie 4x4 where it wouldnt start and it was the fuse holder for the fuel pump relay. The connections on the fuse holder were corroded. The electrican cut the fuse holder out and put a new one in. He was on 20mins lookin at my car and he cured it in that time.

 

If you lived up in the north east of england i would of had a look at it for you.
