Is there a reset button on a 1999 isuzu trooper 4x4 it won't start acting as if it's out of gas but isn't already replaced fuel pump 2 mths ago
which engine? i cant guess engines, not today, too early.
what will be, will be..... fate always wins... and entropy.
so that is just 2 simple tests.
12vdc (11v cranking) to the pump , across both its 2 pins?
yes, /no of no work to ECU relay (fuel pump relay)
if the relay shows 12vdc cranking and pump
then we check fuel pressure, next.
but that is all wrong..... what do we really do, as all EFI systems can cut fuel for many reasons, besides that pump.
ill guess its a gasoline engine, and still stock end to end. (blind too)
1: head lights glow bright , key off. and cranks fast on demand.
2: key on, the CEL glows, in cluster, it must or ECU lost power.
3: fuses to ECU and pump good...???? all fuses good.
4: i connect scan tool (any tool works in usa, here) at the 16pin DLC port seen near knees of driver. i get comms now. if not say so.... if no comms now, the ecu is dead.
5: I crank for 5seconds release key and if scans show DTC errors of
P03xx codes, now you know why injection is halted, by design.
all cars do that, if up to 3 things spark wise are bad, the ECU cuts all injectors dead. (prevents crash and burn, as seen on TV by law)
so if all that is OK,?
6:then i look and see if injector 1 passes my NOID light test.
yes, then it is injecting. ECU is....injecting. ok. (did its job)
7: i then check for 12vdc (11v cranking) to the pump, if not?, I trace that wire for its obvious failure or the relay bad.
if you have 12vdc to pump cranking (good)
i check fuel pressure next. using a tool called a fuel pressure gauge that costs $20 (ask)
one could skip to test 6 first. (6 bad, start back at #1)
next time post engine in car.
cylinder count at least and displacement.
the line up, last 2 are diesel...
3.2 L 6VD1 SOHC V6
3.2 L 6VD1 DOHC V6 twin cam.
3.5 L 6VE1 DOHC V6
3.0 L 4JX1 TD I4
3.1 L 4JG2 TD I4
i answered for USA car, and gasoline engine..
