    Wtf!!!!!!

    Okay,

    I completed the sway in February. Been in love ever since. Camber was all fucked up, dropped the sub frame installed new IE poly sub frame mounts, camber eccentric trailing arm kit, and reinstalled everything. This was in the course of 22 days.

    Monday - go to turn the vehicle on. Dead battery. Charge it, still no go.
    Tuesday - Figured out the fuel pump (in line one, not tank) wasn't turning on.
    Wednesday - New fuel pump, still no go....... Jumped 30-87 on the relay still doesn't turn on. Checked fuse #11 that was fine.

    @ this point I'm @ a loss for words... I haven't the slightest Idea what the fuck could be going on. It doesn't make a lick of sense to me.

    Anybody have any idea's????

            Year and model of chassis and engine?

            You replaced the pump without checking to see if it was getting power? You need to trace back why it's not getting 12v. Do you even have 12v for the fuel pump wire coming from the ECU through the engine harness to the c101? If not, your pump and fuse worries are irrelevant.

            Are you getting spark? Are you even getting 12v at the main relay?

              JGood,

              All relevant questions I'm going to tackle with a test lead, and alldata. After this evening I'll determine what/where my problem lies. I guess my original post was out of pure frustration and I wanted to see if someone had a similar problem...

                  possibly. My friend is coming over this evening to give it a once over. He's done many great things with this car. Regardless I'll post my findings this evening.
