    Dead DME?

    Just wondering, is there any way to establish if my DME is functioning or not?

    Its super cold outside so i havent been able to check a great deal but the fuel pump isnt even working, no fuel in the lines so im just wondering if the DME is dead, would be nice to rule it out one way or another.. So yeah, any way to test it?

    Thanks!

    Are you sure it gets electricity and all other things are functioning?

    Is it a engine swap car trying to get alive for the first time or regular car? Which engine?

      he has another thread right above this one about running a M30 on a M20 harness. I am guessing he is trying to get one fiored off for the first time.

        Are you sure it's not just fuel pump? Are you getting spark?

          chek your relays. when you have the key turned you should hear the control valve make noise! if your using the m30 harness the relays have a wire that should be hooked up to power! if it is the m20 harness the relays have there own power running through the harness. remember to take the fuel lines off and then crank the engine and see if you get fuel for sure!
