mark11 Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 Does anyone know. Does this relay just control the fuel pump or the ignition as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 fuel pump has its own relay I'm sure. Main relay is ignition. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

mark11 Posted June 4, 2013 Author Share Posted June 4, 2013 Me again, thanks for all your help and i really appreciate your comments. I know some of you have said it might be the relay and some have said it might be the ignitor.some also to me to resolder the blobs on the relay which i have done.Yesterday it cut out on me 4 times, this is first time its done this since my last post (29th April)Ive been researching on google and some saying that the relay controls the pump and the injectors, sometimes it fires pump up but doesn't fire injectors which causes them to stop. Someone also said the relay should click 3 times, pump, power then injectors (don't know if right). Plus they said you should notice it more in hot weather (which i do)Also read that if its dizzy should come up with code 15. Can these be plugged in and does anyone know what sort of plug it is and where it is.Also still have no engine management lights coming on. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spudley1988 Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 I personally still think its your relay as thats exactly what mine was doing. I'm not saying its not the other issues which have been stated but i had exact same problems as you and i had my fuel pump relay soldered about a year ago or so now and its never cut out on me since. Mine also had a burnt smell and some of the solders looked cracked and just crappy in general. Hope you get to the bottom of this mate.

spudley1988 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Hope this finally sorts it for you mate. Just hope the one out the scrappies is in good condition and wasnt close to doing what ours was doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark11 Posted October 10, 2013 Author Share Posted October 10, 2013 thought i got away with this with replacing the relay. but last night it cut out on me and i had to get towed home. It could out it wouldnt startive checked and ive got no spark at all - assuming its ignitor, anyone know where i can get a new one cheap and what name to get cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marko Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 http://www.ignitioncarparts.co.uk/PartDetails.aspx?s_pc=PM00760&s_vid= £48+ postage which is excessive at £9 maybe phone them get them to post it normally for a lot less,from what i understand the ignitor isn the expensive part the heat sink attached to the ignitor is the expensive part Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
