Mitsubishi Repair: mitsibishi 2001 eclipse no spark or injector pulse, fuel pump, detonation


Question
have 2001 eclipse no inj pulse no spark timing belt good swapped out crank and cam sensors did not help noted control fuse blown has direct short will blow fuse immediately upon replacing also noted fuel pump not coming on but i think relay is thanks for any advice i think might be ecu?

Answer
Tom,
If the ECU detects the fuel pump is bad, it will immediately blow the fuse.  This is done to prevent the engine from trying to start/run, which would cause detonation.  Connect a 12v source directly to fuel pump to see if it activates and pressurizes the lines.  If it does not, you'll need to replace your fuel pump.
Good luck!
