I have been searching for a while, is there a fuel pump fuse on a 1999 Ram with the 5.2 motor? It is not in the fuse box under the hood and any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

 

If it's anything like the `98s ... it's not a fuse ... it's a relay. Under the hood, drivers side, relay block.

 

Thanks man. I was hoping it wasn't my fuel pump, but it seems that it is.

 

There is both a fuse AND a relay. They should both be in the power center under the hood

 

Which fuse is it on my 99. Even the chiltons that I have doesnt help. I havent found any fuse that would possibly be it.

 

If the 1999 is like the 2001, check fuse 9 (10A, in the junction block) and fuse 3 (20A, in the PDC)
Also, you can substitute another relay and see if that works. Or, just take out the relay, and test terminal 30 [which will be marked on the bottom of the relay] this should be hot at ALL TIMES via fuse 3) . There should be voltage to terminal 86 with the key ON (via fuse 9). Also, with the key ON, there should be continuity between terminal 85 and a ground (provided via the PCM).

*Also, what are these joint connectors? Joint connector #2 connects, amoung other things, fuse 3 to the fuel pump relay.

 

It's probably fuse 3 (20A). It's a 20A Maxi-fuse (the big style) on my truck.

Why are you looking for this fuse?

 

Huh?

 

I'm curious as to why the original thread starter is looking for the fuse. I'm guessing he has a problem. It might not be the fuse that's the issue

 

I just had my fuel pump replaced on my 94 Dodge Dakota, but the fuel light is on and the gauge doesn't work. I'm hoping it's just a fuse.
