have a 1987 Ford Ranger that has new fuel pumps on it we checked the Relay and when we turn the key we are getting power to it, but is not turing on the pumps. We followed the orange wire to the inertia switch and it is getting power to it but when it loops around to the other wire on the connector it is not getting power,. We tried 2 inertia swithes and not getting anything. we are wondering if the computer is shot or if we are not getting a good ground somewhere for the wiring. or would it be a bad relay plug. we are thinkg about bypassing the wires instead of them going into the inertia switch just to see what happens. i need help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Replying to: flemdog28 (Nov 09, 2008 3:32 pm) If there is more than one relay, they usually are the same, so you might be able to switcha different relay to the fuel pump relay and see if this is the problem. Also, check where you plug the relay in that there is not corrision down in the female plug areas.
