Just replaced fuel pump.. now blowing fuses

[harv]

Interestingly,,, While my fuel pump was randomly quitting on me (down at the Vintage) there was a LOT of heat happening at the fuel pump relay. I think they are 11 bucks at the dealer.

In short, if you have replaced the pump, replaced the fuse, checked the wiring, I'd go after that relay.

Just found this thread, had the exact same problem after installing a new TRE fuel pump, and just got done spending hours checking all the wiring for a short. Gonna put a 10A in there and have a backup 15amp just in case. Thanks guys, i was really starting to get frustrated.

Cool to have been some help.
