Re: [DML] Fuel Pump Not Getting Voltage After RPM Relay Replaced

[mike clemens <rmclemns@xxxxxxxxx>]

Jim,

Just to double check, you say you cut the blue/white
wire at the relay.  I don't see a blue/white wire
connected to the relay.  Did you mean white/purple?

If so, did you check your inertial switch connections?
 I've found one car that had connections down there
that were melted.  If they melt, you end up with the
same problem as popping the inertia switch (an open in
the circuit) which takes away your ground for the fuel
pump.
