How do you test a fuel pump on a Harley?

How do you test a fuel pump on a Harley?

You screw on the test gauge, turn on the ignition and see if the system comes up to pressure when you hear the fuel pump run. Then start the bike and see if it maintains pressure. Should run somewhere around 58 to 60 psi. It’s not how fast you go, it’s how fast you get there!

Why won t my harley start?

If the engine doesn’t crank, it could be because of a failure at any of those stages, a weak battery, or a bad starter. If the motor cranks and still won’t start, then it is likely a fuel or spark issue. A few tests can be performed to quickly track down the problem.

What does no start, no fuel pump mean?

Not sure if that is the problem though as that fuse may get power after a relay closes? fuse is good. Any other ideas? No start, no spark, no fuel pump. working on my 2008 screaming eagle ultra classic that I just got. Engine is a no start.

Why is the fuel pump not working on my Harley?

Key fob battery was dead. Discovered that with a good battery in the fob when I turn ignition to on I can hear the fuel pump charging the system. When the fob is out of range everything works except the fuel pump. Hence the no start issue. Thank you a thousand times over. I spent Over two hours checking every electrical item I could.

What should I do if my fuel pump won’t Prime?

On a fuel injected bike with the key ON, you should hear the fuel pump momentarily prime (high-pitched whine) once the run switch is positioned ON. If the pump fails to prime, check for a blown fuel pump fuse in the fuse box. If the fuse is good, inspect the fuel pump electrical harness plug. Figure 8. Fuel pump harness plug under tank console.

How can I get my fuel pump to run?

Swap an accessory fuse wuth the ignition fuse and give it a whirl. also if I use a “power probe” and apply battery voltage to the fuel pump fuse the fuel pump does run. thanks nipplesurfer, I did try that yesterday.

Why does my Harley Davidson have no spark?

No spark. Good fuel. The service dept. told me that the coil hardly goes bad. It might be the crankshaft sensor. I replaced it and it started.

Why is there no spark to my spark plugs?

There was no spark to the plugs. Was turning over real good. No spark. Good fuel. The service dept. told me that the coil hardly goes bad. It might be the crankshaft sensor. I replaced it and it started. Then a couple of days later it did the same thing, so spark.
