In today's video we take a look at a 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 with a V6 3.7l engine. The owners complaint is that the truck cranks but the engine does not start. Customer states that she had to slam on the brakes abruptly after another driver on the road cut her off. After that the truck lost power, eventually died and would not restart. Follow along as I show you some of my different methods to diagnosing a faulty fuel pump.

The owner recently told me that she drove over an embankment a couple of months ago. She said the truck had to be pulled out by a tow truck because the frame was sitting on the ground. I believe the gas tank may have taken a hit during that incident and that is what broke the fuel pump hanger. She must have been driving a couple of months with the fuel pump module just swashing around freely in the tank. I'm thinking that when she had to stop abruptly, the fuel in the tank swashed around hard enough that the fuel pump got disconnected.

@mikesabin8568 2 года назад

You can use the power probe to load test a ground without using a test light… the instructions that come with the power probe tell you. So you touch the tip to ground, then you hit the power button. If there is a good ground, it trips the circuit breaker. It says that right in the instructions manual. Power goes out of power probe and if it finds good ground, trips that circuit breaker, boom, done

@Garth2011 2 года назад

Great diag process vs. buy expensive parts hoping for a fix. Those Delphi parts are top quality. Delphi makes GM oem parts and has for decades. No worries with the Delphi brand ! In this case, the entire fuel pump module makes sense but in many fuel pump jobs, I see mechanics opting to replace the entire module assy rather than just the fuel pump itself. I bring this up because the fuel pump itself, if it is offered separately as a replacement part, usually costs $40 or so vs. the $200 and up prices for complete modules. There's only a tad more labor involved to transfer the existing pump out and install the new one. Keep your fuel line tool with your fuel pressure gauge at all times. Also, its a good idea to recharge battery jumpers each day as a routine to avoid a useless tool when needed. Thanks for sharing your good skills.

@cyberslacker5150 2 года назад

Great Video Eric. At first thought I thought the problem lied in the TIPM relay. A common failure point. But I see that this truck had the Relay Bypass fix done. I think the Relay on the side of the fuse box is the new bypass fuel pump relay. Oh, and I would like to have seen if the old fuel pump motor was working. Maybe it was the connector that became unplugged. However the plastic on the module assembly was broken and even if the pump motor was working, maybe the module assembly was beyond repair.

@ras0906 10 дней назад

Fantastic video. I like your clear explanations. You said it at the beginning, getting down to the basics of spark and fuel. The supplies to any gasoline engine, even lawn mowers. In this case it was the fuel. Your tools are more sophisticated than the average guy, but we should still be able to follow your lead.

Actually lucky, my 2015 Ram fuel pump relay went out (super common issue) and the fix is usually to replace the TIPM. I built a relay bypass and saved a grip on the repair. Dodge does sell a bypass but it's still expensive but not anywhere near the $1000 new TIPM. Love your in depth video's THX

@TheCrazy243 2 года назад

Great video. Also good tip. I almost got burned by few cars. Crank no start conditions are kinda tricky. I guess I’m still learning. Hooking up fuel gauge is a nightmare. I need better tools and also I’m deaf. I Can’t hear fuel prime or click. I can feel only vibration or using test light. Hearing compression sound wise is very challenging 😭. I used scope for extra help. I still check basic.. Spark, fuel, injector pluses ,air ,and timing/compression.Test not guess.

@russellstephan6844 2 года назад

Re: Cost of fuel pump... Within the last couple of years, I replaced the fuel pump in my Chevy Cavalier before a long 4,000 mile cross country trip. The vehicle had around 120k miles and I didn't feel like getting taken on the road for a grand on a job I could do myself at home. But, a check of part suppliers showed the pump is only sold as a whole-fuel-assembly part (pump, sending unit, installation cage, etc.). At a pricey $400 for an OEM ACDelco unit, I passed. After some research on-line, I found an eBay vendor selling just the physical OEM pump for those willing to take the time to rebuild the sending unit -- at a cost of $40. Let me tell you, those sending units take patience and a delicate hand to disassemble. But, the effort was worth it! The new fuel pump allowed the car to bang out the long distance trip without any hiccups. So, the moral of the story? If you're a DIY'er, look at eBay for vendors supplying work-arounds to expensive full-assemblies.
