Post #5 video: around 1:04 into it shows the bad spot on the circuit board. Mine did this and I had to replace the relay. Desolder & solder in new one.


i have power to my board, in and output and to the green/yellow wire at the inertia switch, so my relays are good. Why does my POS truck always have to have the short end of the stick, and not be a bad relay or something?

As soon as its fixed, its being sold! Anyone want a good deal on a set of tow mirrors? LOL

What do you expect from a vehicle that is 15/16 years old? If that is the original pump you did well. Chalk it up to maintenance and move on with it. Not a good reason to sell it. Do you sell your vehicle when the tires are worn out?

No, I understand where you are coming from... But this thing has driven me nuts and has been very expensive! New O2 sensors less than 2 weeks ago(downstream), replaced the engine around 25k ago, trans has been rebuilt about 35k ago. New cats both sides too. The radiator cradle has seen better days, and I found bad rust on the frame recently near the right rear wheel.... I was gonna drive it until spring, but I've had enough of it.

Going to go look at a diesel Excursion Saturday. I have done the research on what to look for in a 6.0. The good part, is it spent its life in Georgia until 2014. So the rust shouldn't be a factor. But, if it doesn't do exactly as it is suppose to do, I won't be bringing it home...

Got the pump changed out... What a pain in the ass! But, it's running again. Wish it would of been something simple like the relay or something, but it was the pump itself.
