no power to fuel pump or fuse 944S2

[tonypanic]

hello went to go out for a run today started the car up drove out the garage let run for a few mins turned off to go and get wallet and phone came back out car fired once then stopped. After checking lots of usual things spark and fuel found no live feed to fuel pump than checked at fuse (no34)no live feed there either. Is there a relay for the pump or does it run off the ecu, has any one else had similar problem. Wondered if it could be due to alarm (toad). Any help would be appriecated, if not will have to go to a specailist.

Many thanks Tony.

I bet your DME relay has failed. The DME relay switches the fuel pump off and on (among other things) and they fail after a few years. Most 944 owners car a spare in the glovebox, they are under £20 from an OPC.

You can check it and make up an emergency jumper if you follow the instructions at Clarks Garage here:

Cheers Tony.
