I am wondering if anyone has a wiring diagram for a 1997 Neon 2L SOHC.
Specifically the fuel system.
Thanks
Randy

pin 55 in you relay is always hot, this closes to pin 52DK GRN/WHT wire that goes direct to the fuel pump and toground.


If you what the diagram your going to have to buy a maintenance manual.

OK I am going to look at this again tomorrow. ( To many irons in the fire right now. )
I have a simple wiring diagram. In doing a lot of reading it appears that a bad ground is often the cause of electrical problems. Is there any common ground issues with the fuel pump that you are aware of ? I am just wondering that I am not overlooking the obvious. Also I am concerned that when run a jumper from pin 55 on the relay socket to pin 52 on the socket and it doesn't work where to look next.
Thanks for your help
Randy

OK I have done some more testing on the car. I tested the dk grn \ wht stripe wire at the fuel pump connection ( with some help of course )and when I turn the key on I have voltage for aprox 2 - 3 seconds then it drops off. I understand this is normal until the car is running. There is the problem the car never starts. So I guess I am looking for a way to test the fuel pump at the 4 wire connection at the pump. I would like to be sure it is bad before I go spend $$$$ on a fuel pump.
Thanks
Randy

to test the pump you apply 12 volts to DK GRN/WHT wire. its a good idea to use a 20 amp fuse in series with your jumper wire.

If I send 12 volts to that wire should I hear the fuel pump run ?
I mean while I am under the car near the fuel pump.
