Hello folks,
I've come across a new problem. Went to get into the truck (1991 Explorer Eddie Bauer) today and the battery was dead as a doorknob. The battery is less than a year old so I figure I'm drawing power when the truck is off.
Jumped the truck, no problem, and let the battery charge. Turned the truck back off to start and troubleshoot and I heard the fuel pump still running. Went to the power distribution box and pulled the fuel pump fuse and the pump shut off.
From looking at the wiring diagram it could either be the ECC relay or the fuel pump relay (the power circuit on the ECC feeds the coil on the fuel pump relay). I've tested both relays and they are both switching fine. The resistance across the fuel pump relay is about 60 ohms and the resistance across the ECC relay goes to infinite ohms.
I'd guess the coil in the ECC relay is breaking down...yes? What should the resistance across the coils in these relays be?
Before I do anything I though I'd make sure.
Thanks for all your help in advance.
