does anybody have detailed pictures of the 2 plugs behind the battery? i used the chart off srswap and everything works except the fuel pump. we hot wired it to the battery and it works and the fuse isnt blown and the relay is good, so its something to do with my wiring. thanks.

yeah i checked the connection, we wired an electric fan to the circuit of the fuel pump and it worked.. so i have no idea. my cousin wired the car before and it worked just perfect, but when i went to rewire it using the chart off heavythrottle or srswap, (same thing) i noticed he had wires connected that werent on the diagram.. so i undid everything and used the diagram.. and now its not working correctly.. so its def my wiring. ygm pulsar, thanks so much man!

thanks pulsar, and touge my fuses are good with the fans in them. i took the blue wire (or positive) on the fan and put it in my fuel pump fuse.. and the black wire (or negative) and just put it on a ground. So far so good.. however i wouldnt do this if you have a walrbo 255 pump. my cousin has a sr and when he wired his elec fans to the pump with the walbro he blew the walbro. its only successful on stock ka pumps as far as i know. other then that if your using a walrbo, just get a switch and hook the fans straight to the battery. its what ima do.. and thanks pulsar. ill let you guys know what happens.

you could use the fuel pump wire to swithc a relay to provide power from the battery to the fans.
