Okay here is the deal, I was driving home the other night on the freeway, just driving at 70ish and all of a sudden my car died. Soild CEL. Turn the key half way on and there is no fuel pump whirrel sound. So I think the pump was jacked. Well, I pulled the pump and replaced it with one that I know is good. Still nothing. Turn the key on and the CEL on the cluster stays on and there is no sound from the fuel pump.

So I change the main relay with one I know is good (pulled from a running car) and still the same thing.

90 CRX si
b18a1
pr4 ecu

When i hook up the fuel pump directly to a battery it will make the whirrel sound so I know it's good.

It is really rather urgent, I'm driving my other car right now and the ****** smokes hard. So I'd like to get this one done.

 

Check the fuses under the hood. You might have blown the main relay fuse. HTH

All of the under hood fuses are good.

 

did u test the pump usin water to make sure its workin right? hearin the whirring noise doesnt comfirm its working 100% properly

 

Your ECU is dead... When it does the CEL will remain solid.

 

Check this fuse:
It is under the dash...

i was gonna post the exact same thing
but i didnt have a pic

i got owned by this fuse once

swapped main relays, swapped conversion harness, swapped ecu's etc..

does anyone even know what that fuse even does ??

 

I pushed my car about a mile because of that fuse..

It will blow if the alternator is overcharging for one thing...

Also Fuse #14 powers the following:

Alternator (voltage regulator)
Emission control solenoid valves
PGM-FI main relay
PGM-FI ECU (IG1)
FUEL PUMP
ELD=eletronic load detector
EACV=electronic air control valve

 

That fused owned me. I went out and checked it after the under the hood ones.

Now she is having a problem starting. Coil was jacked too =/

My other car is still smokin' hard

thanks though for the help

 

its a fuse
same **** happened to me.
check all your fuses
if you dont find any bad
then check em again
its a fuse i had the EXACT same symptoms
DOH shoulda read the whole thread first. oh wel ill leave it up for the archives

i have no idea why mine blew
i was idling my car to cool the turbo and all of the sudden she died
i know a few other ppl that have been owned by this bastard as well

 

i used to have the same problem, it was a fuse

 

man ef's are havin electrical problems like no other these days, wtf.


I always thought that a solid light meant bad ecu, but find the oem manual and troubleshoot away.
