OK so my main relay is just buzzing, and yes i searched but out of the 9 that come up they all say to check your thermostat ground and i guess that fixed everyones problem cuz no one said nothing else in those threads,,,but anyways i have my thermostat ground and it is still buzzing, i even tried directly grounding it cut the black wire and grounded it, still buzzed. i went out to my 92 DA took off that main relay and it still buzzing, my fuel pump is not priming also..i need HELP ASAP...

Check your two grounds underneath your dash on the driver side. If you are 100 percent positive the ground at the thermostat housing is secure.

CoolRedXylophone

is one of these grounds solid black and the other one with a white stripe??

also, where is the thermostat ground

Rukusmasta2

thermostat ground should be right around your thermostat 2 wires...unless u got a wire tuck ull probably have to extend it

Make sure the ground wires aren't ate up with corrosion. Sometimes it's hard to see so look close. The buzzing sounds like a low battery. The car does crank, just not start, right?

Rukusmasta2

no it cranks im not gettin fuel the relay isnt lettin the fuel pump prime

payneth

maybe replace the relay? I dunno i have this same problem and i am going to change out my main relay with one of the extras i have sitting around. I will let you know. But it might be your fuel pump? Cause mine does this maybe once a week... i will keep you posted

oh and are you throwing any codes at all?

well i did replace relay with a DA one i got here same thing and i ran a wire direct from battery to fuel pump and it turned on?? what are the chances that both relays are bad, lol and i soldered the regular one on some of the joints that looked bad and still same thing, im so stumped

Rywire

What did you do to the car recently? Like what mods?

Rukusmasta2

LS/VTEC motor dpfi-mpfi, obd0-obd1, and installed a 00si cluster and VAFC the thing is i had it running like 2 weeks ago, i finished wiring up the cluster and O2 sensor and VAFC and it started doin it didnt do it before that though

Rywire

so just randomly it started to do this? something broke or came loose

Rukusmasta2

i solder just bout every connection ive mad in the car...its so wierd seiriously...none of those wires that have to do with the VAFC or O2 sensor could possibly affect it??

Rywire

Put it back to how it was I guess
