Hi Guys

Im getting an intermittent signal to my fuel pumps positive wire it just goes on and off when ever it feels like it??

I have checked the relay, fuse and changed fuel pumps all with no effect.

I have tried re earthing the pumps negative which had no effect.

Does the ecu give the the signal to the fuel pump? could the ecu be damaged? how do you check it?

and if so what pin out is it? I am using a PFC and the car is an 94 r33 gtst.

Any help would be great...

Run a new power cable to near the fuel pump. Connect a relay(with fuse) up with constant power to both power ins. Then use the ecu negative trigger to activate the relay. Ground Ur earth wire from the pump to the body. Then just use the power out from the relay to the fuel pump positive.

Do you know which pin out the trigger is? I will try this on the weekend, this will run full volts to the pump though won't it?

I'd still like to find the original problem any ideas on how to start?

this will run the battery voltage at the pump which is the best way to have if and a very common cheap upgrade to get better fuel flow to the fuel rail.

this is still controlled by the ecu to it is very safe, if the engine stops so does the fuel pump so if you roll the car it won't keep pumping fuel.

unsure of which terminal, google for your car and ecu type for the pinout

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
