ok the lowest my meter goes down to in ohms is 200. I have a 10 dollar harbor freight meter lol. It just stayed at 1.. No change with it on there or not. when i switch meter to ohm it shows 1 and when i hook it up to pump no change. tried at 2000. got same thing. only way it will read is at 20k or above. and i get 4.29 at 20k.

 

4.29@20K Ohms is far far far too high. sounds like you have a broken fuel pump. Why this would have happened with a battery change out, I have no idea.

 

I don't think the battery was ever the issue. Just was my first starting point being it was 6 years old

 

Ahh, ok. that makes more sense. Looks like you found the culprit!

 

Yes thx to you. Thx alot bro

 

was it the fuel Pump?

 

Yes it was

 

 

What's your ambient temp...? Profile says you're in Wi.

As temp goes down, resistance goes up. Not sure of the function or formula, or the quality of your multi-meter, yet you seem in the range.

 

 

im going to try this for my car , my pump wont turn on .. now i have changed everything there is to change and double checked to see if im getting power from what i need and so far the fuel pump controller is fine the connection for the fuel pump is good also , i have changed the fuel pump relay and the fuel fuse and i have swapped a new fuel pump and still no power to the fuel pump , if i try this and the pump turns on what would be my next step ?

 

so i just got back into the house and i tested the pump it self its giving me 1.4 ohms on the lowest setting on my multi meter which is 200 ohms is that good or bad ?

 

If there's no power to the fuel pump, how do you know the old pump was bad...?

Have you hot-wired the old and new pump, to validate their condition?

If you're not getting power to the pump, when called for, power is not leaving somewhere that it should.

Start from the fuel pump, and work your way back, until you find what isn't permitting current to flow to the pump.

 

no i havent tried that reason being that i dont have cables to hot wire it but having a mechanic coming tomorrow to check whats the problem . i assumed it was the fuel pump since it just took a **** on me out of the blue , so lets say i do get the fuel pump running hot wired what is my next step to do because i have checked everything else that can give it power and pump related and everything is working fine so far beside the pump not turning on
