New fuel pump wont work?

Make sure you have voltage at the pump. If you do then the new pump is defective. If not, the fuse is blown or the fuel pump relay is bad. Where is relay?

You are getting fuel by pumping it, but the fuel pump is not running. Go to the underside and pull off the fuel line some where, turn the key and see if fuel comes out. There are several places you can check and probably a filter or two. Check multiple places and before and after any filters. If the fuel pump is like mine, in the rear tank, it is electric. If no fuel, or very little comes out, it is either the pump or the relay unit to the pump. That is assuming there are no messed up fuel lines. It is a good idea to replace in-line and carb fuel filter anyway. If it is a fuel pump, you will likely have to drop the tank, or cut an access hole in the floor of your RV to pull the pump out. The parts are not expensive. After all my work today where I have repalced everything, I think that it is the fuel pump relay. I bought one, but I need to try and find where it is located. All of the filters, pump, relay should total less than $100. The pump is the most expensive, so buy it last. I will check in later if I find where the fuel pump relay is located. Craig


How do you test a fuel pump?

First make sure your fuel pump fuses aren't blown. If they are ok you will need to check the wiring harness from the fuel pump and make sure it has fire to it. If it does it is probably the pump if the engine is firing and you are not getting fuel.

Where is the fuel pump relay located on a 1993 BMW 525i?

The fuel pump relay is under the front hood on the Passenger side, inside a cover held on by screws. the fuel pump relay is Blue or light green. The white one is the "main" one. It has to work to make the fuel pump relay to work when starting the car with the key. To test the pump, read diagram on fuel pump relay and use jumper wire to close the switch and if pump works you can hear it running in the trunk at that cover plate.
