Default Fuel pump not powering up

First, I do not think there is anything wrong with the ECT mod from Modifry. It is flashing as it should on a cold motor.

I use AEM EMS. After the install of this engine temparature gauge mod, the car will try to start, but there is no audible sign that the fuel pump is working and the fuel pressure at the rail reads nil(have gauge). The car wants to turn over, but is getting zero fuel.

I checked the fuel related fuses- all good. In the process of the install, I unplugged the far right group of wires from the EMS. I also temporarily detached the yellow box for my gears.

So I graciously ask for.... HELP!!! I leave for the track Wednesday.

You might try looking at the fuel injection relays too.. I had an 89 supra turbo that the relay was trashed.

If the fuel pump isn't powering up, I'm not sure how the unjector relay could affect it.

After the normal 2 seconds that the fuel pump would have been noisy(and now isn't), I get a "click" from under the hood.

Walbro 255.

It has to...






I'm an idiot. I reconnected one of the wires as if I were removing the ECT module. Viola! Fuel pump powered up. It was then that I realized that I had cut the GREEN/YELLOW wire instead of the YELLOW/GREEN one!

That was going to be where I had you look. I wanted to say the FP is pin 15 on the 32P connector. I just have not had time to look it up. Glad you figured it out.
