99 dodge 24 valve... no voltage to the factory lift pump..

99 ram 2500 4x4 24 valve diesel. normally when you change the fuel filter.. you bump the ignition to start the factory lift pump to prime the new filter. My factory lift pump is getting no voltage. I have looked hi and low for a fuse. I have changed the fuel system relay and still no voltage. I am stumped.. any ideas? thanks Mike T

My dad has a 96 Ram Cummings and he ended up changing a relay on the fire wall. There are two of them beside each other. If you turn your key on and go under the hood on the drivers side push up the linkage on the bottom of the actuator it should stay in place now go inside and see if it will start. That actuator has to be up or it won't start if it's not going up when you turn the key on it's that relay on the driver side firewall.

Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/benjamin_494963e790f97efb

SOURCE: priming fuel

You prime it at the lifter pump on the drivers side the primer is a black rubber push button type. you shouldn't have to crack any injector lines if you do you can risk damaging the lines or their ability to seal. good luck

SOURCE: 99 ram diesel wont start

Did you check to see if there is power to the glow plugs if not then that may be the problem and if there is power when you cycle the key not to start but for the plugs to warm up you may have a bad glow plugs.

SOURCE: I have a 1998.5 dodge 5.9 cummings diesel 24 valve

It was located on the drivers side of engine close to fuel filter housing, but dodge has been selling and installing kits that change it to the in tank style for quite some time, so if not on block it must have been converted at some time.

2000 dodge ram diesel 2500 . What is a fuel injection pump mechnical failure? a fuel valve feedback circuit?

This usually happens when the lift pump gets worn and fuel pressure drops below 7lbs and the injection pump has to work harder by pulling in the fuel and will destroy the pump,your is probably a vp44 fuel injection pump it needs replaced and they are expensive 1200.00+ but also change the lift pump or change to a fass fuel system,if the lift pump went out and you replace the injection pump it will ruin it in a short time.
The injection pump is not an easy job to change or for a novice mechanic as it has to be set in time with the engine at top dead center,and then the whole fuel system needs to be bleed of air.

Truck wont start after draining fuel filter?

You may have gotten air in the fuel lines. Diesels cant deal with this as well as gas engines should be a purge / bleeder valve on the fuel lines to eliminate the air. may cough and sputter for a while

'99 dodge diesel won't stay running

You did not say if lift pump was delivering, so I am assuming it is not. When you pulled the fuel filter, was it full / under pressure? If not, lift pump most likely the problem. cracked fuel lines in system may also be the cause. I rec. replacing lift pump, if that does not solve problem, look for cracks / breaks in fuel line prior to lift pump.
