Default Help Needed! Car Does Not Run!

Hey,

I got a 92-95 Honda Civic with a 2001 Integra LS engine, and a chipped ECU.

On sunday night i wanted to go home, but my car would not start :awais: . It was running fine for the daytime, but when i wanted to go home at night, it would not start. I turned the key to "on" and i did not hear the fuel pump fire up. I checked the fuel pressure and it was reading 0! I then proceeded to replace the fuel pump with a type-r pump. This did nothing. The car still does not run, and then check engine light still stays on. I could not find the fuse (if there is one) for the fuel pump (so if there is one, and you know where it is, let me know).

Does anybody know what else it might be. I was thinking maybe it is the ECU, but that would be expensive to just pick-up and try out. Please let me know, as i need my car for transportation.

Thank you in advance,

Johan

Well first off, check the code and see what it says.

Another thing you can do is remove and inspect the ECU (15 A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box. If that is bad, replace it. Then inspect the ACG (S) (15 A) fuse in the under-dash fuse box.

It is possible that it could be your ECU, but probably unlikely.

Here are some pictures from the service manual that might help you. They are for trouble shooting when you don't hear your fuel pump come on. You will also see a picture of there the "main" relay is.

I use to go to other boards, but this is really impressive...Thanks alot, im sure that will help. I have been having problems with my electrical system over the last few months, so it might just be it. I will check it right after work...

Thanks again,

Johan
