You guys rock.

Pump is bad, I have checked all points at relay, and connector and contrary to my prev. post I have power. The problem was that the power is not at the connector unless the car is turning. Once I fig this out, I checked for cont. at b/w the connector and relay and it was 0 ohms. Took out the pump an...

Just to make sure I understand what you posted.... ECU is working if I got voltage at the relay connector, or if it is clicking when ign is on. I got that. So you want me to take relay out, and check for continutity at the relay pins (between 1,3 and 2,4)? So this basicallly checks that the relay is...

I have found out that at the connector, it is the 1 pin that powers pump. it is blue/yellow. I have 0v there.
Now I have checked voltage at relay and get 12v at both the points I need.

Im a bit confused. I have power at the relay, but 0 at the connector.
Where am I to look next?
ECU?

yes the relay is a round, metal. It was the one w/ the green connector. I got the right one. Would anyone be able to tell me what voltage readings I need to have at the connector. That would prob. help me out the most. That way I can know for sure if I am receiving power to the pump. I have been rea...

I am about as sure as the Haynes manual is. The manual said to look under drivers dash, take fuse box out and that it is the one next to the brown square relay. It label it green. Now I am not 100% sure b/c the diag. was not the same as what I had in my Outback. But I am sure I pulled the green one ...

The fuses at the fuse box are fine. So are the ones under the hood. I have taken apart the area under dash to get to the relay. I have found it, it is green and round. I took it in to get it tested and it works. I also know it works b/c when installed and I turn IGN on it clicks. What I need to know...

Is there a forum for 1996 Legacy owners? I just realized that this is for 89-94.
My bad, I just couldn't find anything else out there

Oh yeah that is assuming that 1 is the + lead and 4 is the (-).
same w/ 2,5

The connector at the pump was rather small so I used clips to get in the tight spot. I connected both neg and positive. Now there could be a possibility (small)that I could have closed the circuit b/c the connectors I used may have been close enought to arc. Like I said the connector at the FP is li...

Thanks for the heads up.
I have a 1996 Legacy Outback (wagon) 2.5L

My confusion is coming from the fact that none of the connectors in the diagrams, be it the Haynes manual or Josh web links match what i have in my Outback. Even the relay diag. did not look like what is under the dash. The only reason I knew to take out the relay I did was b/c it was green and the ...

Thanks for the quick rspns. Now what about my voltage readings at the connector? I have taken readings at the connector w/ the relay installed and w/ the relay out. How is it possible that I have the same voltage readings at the r22 connector? Withe the clip of the r22 connector at 0 degrees, I have...

does anyone have any ideas on my post?
I am stuck in Ocala FL until I get my Subaru fixed. Im starting to loose my mind here.

I have just wired a direct line to the pump, and it didn't work. I tried it on the lead that read 0V and also the one that read 11.5v. When connected to the 11.5v I got nothing (I think it was the 2,4 pins) When connected to the 0v (I think 1,3) it closed the circuit, but the pump didn't go. I think...

Please help anyone!!!! Ok now I have all the information to make diagnosis. 1. Fuel Relay is OK. I have tested it now and it works. (It clicks when powered). 2. I am receiving power to the 5pin connector in the back-- I think!!! Now. this is where Im not fully understanding. I have measured the volt...

Also, Should I have any voltage at all at the fuel pump connector if the relay is not plugged in? I have bought a new relay, installed it and tried to start car. It sounded like it was going to then nothing again. I have check the voltage at the relay connector and got 11.9v. I check the voltage at ...

Josh, After reading the fuel pump post on pg 6 of the Electircal Forum, one poster said to check the harness connector under the passenger rear seat before checking the relay. My ? for u is, is the harness connector under the passenger rear seat, or is it located at the connection with the fuel pump...

Thanks for the quick rspns. Now I can go back and try to stick my big fat hands in the small cavity they decided to place the relay. This is by far the best forum site I have been too also. Very detailed, and informative. Many thanks again.

According to Haynes manual, I should check the fuse if my fuel pump is not working. Its states that is fuse is blown, replace. It blows again to check the relay. Now I have found the relay, pump, sending unit etc. But not fuse. I would like to know if the fuse exist or if the car only has a relay. I...
