Hi

R34 GTT isnt getting a signal to the fuel pump

have tested the fuel pump with a direct 12V source and it works

when car is switched to ON, the pump doesn't prime

does anybody know possible reasons for this?

is there a stock fuel pump relay, if so where it it located?

thanks for the help

had a similar prob with a sr s13 turned out to be the bolt that holds the ecu plug in was not done up

ecu plug is deffinitly on tight

i tried to get some diagnostic codes using the diagnostic plug, but couldnt get the engine light on the dash to flash

im leaning towards a faulty ecu

gonna try get hold of a spare r34 neo gtt ecu to test it, or put my ecu in another r34 (if anybody can help me that would be great)

cheers

surely there should be a relay in the fuse box under the bonnet in r34 test if there is power getting to the relay if there is its prob the relay if not, its something pre relay ecu/wiring/earth maybe if you wanna check if the ecu fuel pump output is working get a wiring diagrame and check the wire on the plug for ecu?

I just had this issue with my R33.

Hard wire it to another 12v source. I used the 4ws lol. Seeing as im not using it.

In my case it appears the circuit is dodgy. As my boost controller stopped working too.

Fuel Pump, boost controller (wired to stock solenoid wiring) and stock narrowband were all only getting 11v. Not enough to make them work.

I just re wired them all to different sources (bar the narrowband as its not in use) and all is fine again.

Leave the earths as the are.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
