What stops a fuel pump from priming?

What stops a fuel pump from priming?

The fuel pump has a pressure relief valve that allows excess fuel to return to the tank. It won’t be putting raw fuel into the engine as that’s controlled by the injector. There are no pressure switches on the pump so it must be the ECU that governs how long to run the pump before the engine starts.

Why does my fuel pump not prime with the key on?

Fuel pump doesn’t prime with key on. I’ve been trying to figure this out for a couple days now. My 01 Tiburon wouldn’t start the other day. It would crank, but wouldn’t fire. When I turn the key to the “on” position, the fuel pump doesn’t kick on.

When do I turn ignition on fuel pump keeps running?

I don’t think anywhere in the thread he has said that the engine is turning over, only the hum of a motor running, which is most likely the fuel pump. However, he still should be able to get the engine to turn over with the starter, unless the battery voltage is low and the voltage circuit in the starter relay is keeping it from activating.

Where is the fuel pump in a car?

The fuel pump is in the tank on the lower right side. While the started motor is located just above the transmission on the lower left side where you have your dot. Normally if the starter relay it stuck, the starter will continue to run even with the key off.

Why is the fuel pump relay not closing?

If jumping the fuel pump relay makes the pump run, and if the relay tests good. Then you need to determine why the ECM is not telling the relay to close. Start by testing continuity back to the ECM. Here is the electrical diagram for the 01 Tib Fuel Pump Relay

Why does my fuel pump not prime when I turn it on?

Pulled fuel pump relay and put in a jumper wire to run the fuel pump and it started. Put the fuel pump relay back in and it starts and drives, but the fuel pump still doesn’t prime when turning the key on. I’m afraid that after sitting overnight, it will once again refuse to start.
