I have a small turbo ESCOS, and upto last week was tickity boo

Now, the damn thing wont start and the fuel pump is not priming, checked for voltage and 0volts at the pump wiring.

Checked at the fuel pump relay and it seems there is no power to the relay. where is the supply for the pump relay, what can i check, ???

Id appreciate any help in pointing me in the right direction to repair it

cheers

Have you checked the fuel cut off switch in the Passenger foot well, behind the kick panel ? Not sure if it would cause the probelm but worth a look.

Yes checked that mate, even took it out and checked it was operating correctly, and reset it

gog

Had exactly the same symptoms, turned out to be an internal break in the fuse box, fitted a new one, available from the local dealer.

dalsy70

How did you check that mate and confirm that was the problem

would help me no end in diagnosing the problem correctly

cheers

cheeRS Dave

so was it a full fuse box replacement or a repair to the exsisting fuse box to get her running again

MONSTER

I had my fuse box repaired mate, they just soldered a link in to bypass the dry joint, apparently its an easy job as long as you know which joint to bypass

same thing happened to mine it was fuse box 150 from ford for a none lux 250 for a lux one

Anybody got any more info on this fusebox repair. A diagram of the fusebox would be very helpful.
No power to my pump so thinking I may have the same problem.

mine has started doing it as well, when i turn the ignition on the pump does not start. after i play about with the imobiliser and ignition for 10 mins it works, where is the fuel pump relay?? colour??

phil clay

cant believe this,mine wont start either, changed the fuel pump relay,a red relay and one behind the battery, it still wont start, cant hear the fuel pump prime when i turn on the ignition.

gog

Pump relay is yellow and is plugged in to fusebox.
Have the old fusebox out of mine, which could be repaired, if anyone wants it? '75 ST lux

phil clay

i changed 3 relays altogether,mine is a bt, was told it was brown.
