Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

went to start my 2002 996 the other day and it just cranks over without firing. Strange as it was running ok the day b4. Checked all fuses and ok, but no power getting to the fuel pump fuse. Where is the relay associated to the to the fuel fuel pump? Help as this is anoying me now. Thks

POST 2Original post

The fuel pump relay is in position 13. The relay support is in the driver's footwell.

POST 3Original post

Are you sure its not just flooded ?? If so remove all of the fuses to do with fuel. Make sure the circuit with the starter motor is still live and then crank it over for a few seconds. Replace the fuses and try again. A similar thing happened to my Bosses 996 Cab and thats what Zentrum told him to do and it worked. Richard might have more ideas on this

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post
