My Cars Dead! lol

[PhilW]

Typical after spending an entire weekend on it and everything working well and it running really well for the first time in ages the bloody thing just cuts out on me about half a mile from home.

Wont start just cranks over and over.

No fault codes, no lights on the dash, battery voltage fine.

My thoughts are suspected dead fuel pump. Great.

What a $h1tter.

Fuel filter OK? Can you hear the pump priming?

 

[DPJ]

Sounds like pump, Phil.

 

[D--R--E--W]

Would guess fuel pump over filter.

the car would usually start with a ****ed filter but would run like shite

 

[ibizacupra]

did'nt you swap the in tank pump?>
fuse ok?

[SEAT Dealer impression]Car is OK then, no fault found[/SEAT Dealer impression]

Common sense..... is there petrol in the car? fuses/relays/trapped FP wire?

 

[PhilW]

Filled up on monday, about 3/4 of petrol in it on the gauge so i dont think its that.

Pump was swapped for a 4bar S3 pump which i intend to remove after i check the pump is priming/sending fuel through. Any quick tests?

Ill check the fuses as well.

 

[alex_cupra09]

listen for the pump priming up check for live and earth feeds to pump

 

[PhilW]

I cant hear anything coming from the pump at all. Just the earth on the actual pump itself or is it located elsewhere?

 

[alex_cupra09]

check the wiring plug that plugs on the pump for live and earth if not check fuses.

 

[PhilW]

It runs. Via a paper clip. Ghetto tuning at its best. lmao.

Something is up with either the WOT BOX or the earth or feed to it as its not powering up properly.

Ive reconnected the loop to the coil packs, as that was the problem, no spark, and it starts with no problems.

Happy days.
