    M30 - have spark, fuel pump not running

    After doing an oil change and installing a new power antenna, my car started fine. Left it for the night - wouldn't start in the morning.

    Car has spark. Fuel pump not running, even when I bridge 30 and 87 on the fuel pump relay, although I do hear a click under the dash panel. Fuses all seem ok. Fuel pump will run when power applied directly to the pump.



    Any ideas?

    post your question on mye28dotcom, someone there will be able to help for sure...
    it has to be your relay IMO..
    there is another relay you can switch in for it but I forget....

      Solved - somehow the ground to fuel pump was bad. I couldn't trace it all the way from pump to ground point so I installed new ground wire.
