SOURCE: fuel pump wont run and keep blowing a fuse in the front fuse box

The power wire to your fuel pump must be shorting out somewhere. Disconnect it and see if your fuse still blows. If not, then follow the wire all the way back to the fuel pump, and look for a bare spot. Good luck!

Fiat Palio 1.2 2005 - Fuel Pump Fuse blowing

so yes, that a dead short.
relay shorted (it is bad)?
or wiring from it to rear and pump and or pump is shorted
but is not the pump bad as it was unplugged
wires front to rear must be inspected, even seen
pump wires go under drivers door sill.
a real service manual from fiat shows harness routing
ever seen a real manual. they are amazing.
if relay is good, one MUST follow the harness
learn to keep an open mind even see past collision damage not fully corrected.(wires crushed) or rats ate wires.
it will be as it will be. see?
post assume fuse is as stated, FP fuse.

Fuse for fuel pump keeps blowing

Normally fuse blows off if more current passes through it than what it is designed for.

Probably it is worth checking what original fuel pump fuse amps requirements and have the same installed.

Also check the relay if there is a relay set for the fuel pump.

Good luck

My 1989 buick park avenue keeps dying. a friend ran a test on it and it said the fuel pump was the problem, but the fuel pump fuse keeps bowing too... Would this be a short somewhere or the fuel pump...

My first thought is that you have wires shorting out somewhere, probably right above the gas tank. Either way, you're going to have to pull the gas tank off to find it. Usually, when a fuel pump dies, it just doesn't work, and won't normally blow a fuse. Pull the tank down, inspect the wiring, and change the fuel pump if the wires check out okay.

Hi I have a 2000 ford taurus that keeps blowing the fuel pump fuse.I have disconected the fuel pump wiring near the fuel tank and it still blows the fuse.All the relays seem to be ok.if anyone has any...

Follow the wires up from the fuel pump to the front of the car. You most likely have a wire that rubbed though its coating somewhere and is causing it to ground out on the frame and blow the fuse.

My 2002 f350 diesel keeps blowing the fuel pump fuse every couple of miles. What is causing this? I changed the filter and it made it worse.

the problem could be the fuel pump fuses only blow when they are overloaded ie. if you have a 15 amp fuse & the fuel pump or whatever is drawing 20 amps the fuse will blow,if you are using the right amp fuse the fuel pump is drawing too much power & may be faulty or there is a problem with the wiring, a loose connection or the like.....hope this helps....cheers
