I have been hearing what I thought to be a weak fuel pump during cranking operations for some time now. I have had a new fuel pump on the shelf waiting for confirmation that it needed replacement. Waiting might have not been a good idea. 95 degree Florida sun, Xfire decides to quit running. only 4 miles from the house. BAS ESP code pops up when she died. I disconnected the battery to clear the code. I happened to have a 10mm spanner in my pocket. I took out the RCM and reconnected all of the connectors and stowed it away. Reconnected the battery I could hear a single click in the rear of the car when I would turn the key to the position that normally activates the pump several times. One time I thought I heard the pump run and went to the start position and the car started and ran, but only for about 4 seconds.
I ended up having it towed home an hour later and put it back in the garage. ... Fuel pump? Have I created other problems by waiting?...This is the black SRT with 156,000. Thanks in advance.
