Need Fuse Help

[BlackenedSVT]

Just got my SCT X-Cal2

Its asking to unplug to the Fuel Pump and Electric Fan Fuses. So i was wondering where these were. Under the steering wheel or under the hood, and does anyone have a quick picture of these specific fuses? I'm feelin lazy

Anyone know where the Cigarette Lighter Fuse is by chance either? My lighter doesn't work and i want to check it...

All those fuses are in the fuse block, for more information please refer to your owner's manual.

Spoken like a true customer service representitive or somethin

Bah! I guess you're going to make me do some effort and work by walking out to my car and READING.

well it's better than spending $200 on a fan problem to find.....

 

[BlackenedSVT]

Yeah why does the SCT tuner instruct you to remove the Fan Relay fuse and the fuel pump fuse?

Further more why did my car start after i still had the fuel pump fuse disconnected? LOL

you likely throw a low fuel rail pressure sensor now

huh?

 

[stangman]

you'll likely throw this code.....

P0190 FRP Sensor Signal Low. (FRP = Fuel Rail Pressure)

What does that mean, and why would u say i would be throwing that code?
And it hasn't thrown any engine codes yet, why would i have that code?

didn't say it was going to, just likely that it would

the reason being is if you took the fuse out for the fuel pump & started it, that means not enough fuel was getting to the engine. it started due to the system still being pressurized & having excess still in the lines. this would mean there was not enough enough fuel in the rails (where the sensor is), thus kicking the code

Well i've gone to vermont and back this weekend and i dont have a problem with a code

Were you implying that IF that code came up the sensor is BAD? Or just malfunctioning or somethin. I dont think this code will appear after considering how long i've driven it now

nah, it was more of a warning that it could happen since you tried to start it that way. if no light came on you're good to go

Yeah i only started it and stopped it. I figured excess pressur ein the lines is what cuased it to start. But even at tech school we would always pull the fuel pump fuse to do a compression test or something liek taht ya know. and cranking it while its getting no gas. Must just be a ford thing to have that sensor fault code then?
