Pump Jump

Use a test light to see if you have power on pin A of the pump relay (orange wire).

It doesn’t matter what position the key is in.

If you don’t have power there check the inline fuse located near the battery.

If there is power there jump pin A to pin E.

Does the pump run when you do that?

My Brakes Don’t Work AT ALL When The Car Is In The Air

well. i didnt do tht... instead i took the cap off and plugged it in and turned the key. thers a piece of metal that clicks to something and that works.. so im assuming the relay is good.. and inline fuse? i have a wire that has a screwcap. i leave it off cuz i thought it was for the system that came with the car.. unless its not the fuse im talking about.. but anywho. when that thing clicked.. the pump didnt do anything.. is it supposed to click every single time i turn the key in the on position. cuz id turn it. it would click. then id turn it asgain and it wouldnt work for a couple of tries.. then it would do it again. then stop .. i hope u understood that lol also btw. the cap that covered the inside of the relay insulated well cuz it doesnt make a sound unless the cap is off
