Guys I wired in a new fuel pump into my 34 GTR and found it didnt work(and yes I got the wires correct and yes the pump works when tested elsewhere).

After that I resoldered the original fuel pump back in to check if it was a resistance thing etc, but that didnt work either, there is no voltage from the wires at the fuel pump

.

So for the moment I have just added a new relay in and got the power from the ignition circuit to switch the relay on and have the fuel pump direct battery voltage feed.

But I would really like to get the orignal circuit working. The fuel pump fuse is fine. I have checked all the fuses in the boot, near the drivers kick panel and under the near the jump start point in the engine bay. Are there any other fuses or can someone tell me where the fuel pump relay is actually located.

My understanding so far is that the ECU fuel pump relay signal puts out .6v (checked against another ecu in my car), from there I think it goes to an earth controller of some sort and then switches the relay on.

Im just shy of tracing wires, but if anyone can give me a heads up on how the circuit works i would be rather greatful.

well.... the fuel pump relay control on the ecu is actually contolled by the inputs the computer receives.

There is a fuel pump drive controller that turns the relay on and off.

Whan i turn the key on i get .6v for 3 secs so this indicates that the the signal is working fine (manual says approx .8v). Seems i may be having trouble with this drive pump controller.

Anyone know where this drive pump controller or the fuel pump relay is located.....im getting closer to this problem

Ok so quick update.... I took the battery terminals literally off then back on....and BAM 12v out the original fuel pump wires....so now have the 14v direct feed relay with the original fuel pump wiring being the swith for my relay....

random electronics lol

bringing up an old thread, went to start the car this morning and it cranked fine but wouldnt kick in...

after abit of investifating we believe its probably the fuel pump as i was not getting any sound prior to cranking (power not getting to the pump??)

checked kick panel, front and rear fuse boxes, all looked good. tried unconnecting the battery and restarting with no luck..

i have a haltech platnium pro plug in that and i will take the laptop down tomorrow and try and see if anything pops up on the logging, and maybe rebooting the ecu (not sure if disconnecting the battery would do this anyways?)...

anyone have any ideas or tips, advice to solve the issues that seem very similar to the above.

any help will be greatly apppreciated.

Cheers,

Anthony

Relays are under the rear rt tail light. Make sure you are getting a pulse on that relay and there is 12v on it.

thanks for the tip mate, was wondering where they are.

im pretty hopeless when it comes to fixing things but will give that a shot tomorrow.

just under the internal boot side wall carpet? or further?

Hey mate,

Anything else i should check after doing the above test? what should i check if it is? or if its not etc?

thanks

u need to test the power at the fuel pump not the relay. and remember u need to test it while either cranking or wiyhing the first 3seconds or so while its supposed ti be priming once key on

Thanks mate, i will look into doing this on the weekend and go from there.

Cheers,

had another look at my issue this morning, and it appears that im not getting power to the relay or the fuel pump.

has anyone had these issues before? from research and looking at wiring diagrams etc it appears the fuel pump control module could be broken. may have to look at hard wiring the pump direct to the battery to fix this? does anyone know an easy way to test if that is 100% the problem, or would be the fact that the pump isnt getting power proof?

here is the wiring diagram i found for reference.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By JC71 · Posted

      looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
