306 Hdi Fuel Pump In Tank

[JayCC 0]

Hi All,

 

Does anyone know what is the +V and -V on the fuel pump conenctor? I think its Pin2 and Pin3 to enable the pump to prime.

 

When taking a multimeter to the feed plug, turn ignition on, it reads 12v on pin 2 and 3 for 3 secs then drops to 3v.

 

I just want to make sure the pump is dud before buying a new one.

 

cheers

hate to say it but the pumps have a reputation for failing - mine was running fine but wouldnt start 8 hours later -tapping it helped but only temporary solution so more likely than wiring

good luck!

just trying to figure out the 12v feed, is it the two central pins? as show in this pic?

I havnt got a wiring diagram to hand but normally you have 2 thick wires and 2 thinner ones, the thicker ones are for the pump the thin ones are for the gauge

Pins 2 and 5 to the fuel pump. Earth is the green yellow one. Found info @ http://community.preloved.co.uk/forums/discussion/17111/help-306-hdi-died.html
