    Fuel pump relay making noise

    Sawbladz, My Supra is having the same sumptoms; Fp relay chatter and dash lights: check engine, battery and Alt lights all light, without the key in the ignition. I only rebuilt my motor, nothing else was touched. Have you gotten it sorted out? Van

    Which battery?

    http://www.braillebattery.com/index.php/batteries/b2015/ I use that battery. It sat in the car for six months, and lost 1 volt. Trickle charged it back to spec and it works great on the new build (Race Ready 7M). Van

    What would cause the fuel pump relay to buzz, even when the key isn't in the ignition

    The FP relay is getting voltage when it should not. The ignition is off (ignition key in my pocket), yet the relay is still getting voltage. I will be checking the circuit opening relay, next. Van http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?Section=FI&P=110

    What would cause the fuel pump relay to buzz, even when the key isn't in the ignition

    Today, I'm planning to diagnose the problem(s) with the EFI system. Wish me patience... After today, if the FP Relay persists with the buzzing, the Supra goes to the mechanic. Van

    What would cause the fuel pump relay to buzz, even when the key isn't in the ignition

    Let me see if I can get my head around this... The problem is ground related. So, I need to start checking all the ground points in the fuel pump circuit. Right?

    What would cause the fuel pump relay to buzz, even when the key isn't in the ignition

    The only time it stops buzzing, is when I short circuit the relay at the diagnostic block (check connector)... through +B and Fp. I checked the relay for continuity and it is still good. Weird. Van:1zhelp:
