Thanks all, i think at this stage a trace of fuel pump wires from tank to fuse box will be my first call and then investigate fuse box connectors but i might gravity feed it to get it running to make sure no other issues

Hi all i have done a lot of checks and so far have glowplugs working, power to fip solenoid is good, earths are good, inertia switch good. I recently bought a Sync Mate and it gives me the green light. My only issue i can find is power to the in tank pump which i know works but no power to the...

Hi all. The update on my P38 start issue is as follows. I bought a Sync Mate and it tells me that the becm and ecu are synced. I have power to FIP solenoid and starter. In tank fuel pump no power to plug. Checked and changed several relays. i have 12v at one pin and if i bridge the relay i still...

Will check it and thanks

I am listening but the way i know it is that it first comes on with the ignition to prime the FIP and once started it kicks in again or that is at least how my other one worked, I will try it your way and see. Also i have a warning on the dash says tranfer box neutral, any ideas

It works with direct feed

If i bridge NO and NC could it work, i believe it has to be on NC to work properly as No is triggered in the event of a crash

I removed my inertia switch and tested the plug for power with the key on. there are 3 pins. 1 is Common, 2 is No, naturally open, 3 is NC, naturally closed. On Common i get 0, on NO i get 12v and on NC i get 0.04. any ideas if this is working because if not i suspect it could be an ecu issue or...

Sorry confusion once again, it is the electric in tank fuel pump relay i was talking about

Care to explain in more detail

yeah i could try. Trying another relay wont work as the power to the pins/socket is the issue.

Sorrry it is the relay for the electric fuel pump. I also have a glow plug issue which has been wired direct to battery for test purpose but will be removing the inlet on the weekend to access fip and glowplugs. I believe the relay for that is in the box behind the battery. not sure which one or...

Yeah it kicks in until pressure to fip then turns off until start then kicks on again when running i believe

Fuel pump relay yes sorry your beer goggles tricked you. My P38 is a 1999 model diesel manual

Fuel pump relay yes. one contact has power but not the other. if i bridge the 2 i get fuel but she still dies after starting. So why no power out to pump, Could it be the inertia switch which i have pressed but could it be faulty

I get that. I have 12 v at feed to relay but not out. What would cause this

But when i put current to the relay points the pump works and she still only stars but dies. Glowplugs not working off key but it could be a relay.

My P38 had an engine change by previous owner. Ican get her to start by direct feed to relay 12 but she starts and revs and then dies, almost like it only gets enough fuel to start and dies. My in tank fuel pump was not working and glow plugs not working from key. Light goes out but no power to...

Not quite sure about that as my 1 99 model had plastic. The other 99 had alu and my 00 had alu

Thanks all
