I think I might just replace the r-clips or buy some to have on hand. Does anyone know the size clips and tool I need for a 2002 Lincoln LS?
A link to the clips would be most helpful.
Many Thanks!
Hi guys,
The pump came in and I have two more questions before I attempt this job over the weekend. I've attached two pictures that I got off another thread. I circled the parts pertaining to my questions.
1) Regarding the lever that the sock is on, should it be bent down before I insert the...
Hi guys,
Can someone point me to where I can find one of these r-clip release tools to change the fuel filter on a 2002 Lincoln LS? I've been searching and I can't find any information about it.
Many Thanks!
Thanks that helps a lot.
I'd like to change the fuel filter out too when I do the fuel pump. Would you recommend I replace the fuel filter before I do the fuel pump?
I shouldn't have to worry about relieving as fuel pressure since my fuel pump has not been working, right?
Many Thanks!
Ok, thanks. Yes, I'm definitely not hearing it.
Do you think a novice can replace a fuel pump on a 2002 LS? I've read some tutorials and it doesn't look too bad.
Would you recommend I get the replacement pump at my Ford dealer or is someplace like Advance ok?
Many Thanks!
Thanks for all of your help joegr.
I was able to do exactly what you said with the pump plugged in and the light did come on for 2 seconds and then it went off. What's next?
So I got the test light. It only lights up on the green/orange wire and when the key is turned to the RUN position. However, it stays lit up. It only goes off when I turned the key back to the OFF position. I get no light on any other wire.
Yes, that's what I did. But when I get the test light, I'm assuming I'm going to do two tests on the power connector that feeds the fuel pump.
1) I would touch the test light probe on the main feed in the wiring connector that connects to the fuel pump and clip the test light alligator clip...
When I get the test light, which color wire is the power feed that I should be testing? Also which color should I be testing for a bad ground?
Many Thanks!
I pulled back some covering behind the harness and saw some colors that I followed back to the female prongs.
I lightly touched the multimeter leads to the green/orange and black/red female prongs. The multimeter read 11.90, both with the key in the OFF and ON position.
Earlier, I also felt...
Attached is a picture of my multimeter. I'm a novice, so if it's possible, be very specific. I don't want to fry anything.
Also, I read about placing a paper-clip on the back of the harness, so not to damage the female prongs. Is this necessary?
Many Thanks!
How do I know which pins are which? I don't see any colors or numbers?
If I could get a test light, how would I use it to perform the test?
Many Thanks!
The fuse, relay and diode all look great. I took the black cover off the top of the pump. There are some corrosion spots. I'm not sure if that's normal. Attached is a picture.
Ok guys, I lifted the back seat up and I can't hear anything coming from the fuel pump area. However, I do hear a humming sound when I turn the key to the on position. It just doesn't sound like it's coming from the back seat. If I turn the key back to the off position and then back to the on...
