Ok so I've been trying to figure this out for 2 days now. I got my sr in and ready to start but fuel pump wasn't coming on. If I jump the relay the pump comes on and the car runs fine. But with the relay in its not getting the ground signal from the ecu. I tested from the relay all the way to pin 104 on the ecu harness with a multi tester and the line is good with no breaks. If I test pin 104 for ground right after the key is cycled it doesn't see any ground. I've come to the conclusion that its the ecu. But when I open it up I don't see any burnt components or anything. Anyone have any ideas? Bad solder joint? anyone know how to get the schematic for the ecu so I can test the resistors? Please help I really want to drive my car and don't want to buy a new ecu if I don't have to.

The schematic for an ecu will not be able to be found. Try a different ecu to prove its an ecu issue. Otherwise put your fuel pump relay ground on a toggle. I've heard of some of the ecu companies like jwt, E-mance, enthalpy being able to fix mafs circuits in the ecu but those guys are super savy. With that stuff and that's kind off a "tricks of the trade" kind of info.

ya I've thought of the toggle switch thing. guess it wouldn't hurt kind of like an additional anti theft device lol. I'm currently trying to find a different ecu
