Electrical problems with Starter and fuel pump.

[jpadilla12]

I just finish the DOHC swap in my car and for some reason the starter doesn't click and the fuel pump doesn't turn on? I check the Starter at Advance and it good. I check for power going to the starter and its good. I check that other wire on the starter with the connection and theirs no power going to that? Where does that wire goes too?



The fuel pump is a new walbro 255 and wired it according to Chris@AMS. I check for power at the pump and nothing? I check all the fuses and its all good.

Starters have the main wire and the wire that powers on when you turn the key to the start position. Sounds like you are talking about the switch wire. Check the voltage on it whie you turn the key to the start position. It should show about 12 volts.

Did you check for power with the key turned to the on position? Are you using a multimeter to check voltages or just listening for it to turn on? I would use a multimeter and confirm the wires are connected correctly and receiving the proper voltages.

Starter ahs a signal wire....Could be just a bad plug....Check connection to the stater, if none check the plug....if not then trace it back

I check the voltage from that wire and nothing!!! Also the pump works but there's no fuel pressure.

Just to let you know, it's a SOHC to DOHC swap.
