Description of the problem | For the past several weeks we have had intermittent problems starting our van. It will occasionally do nothing when the key is turned, it will also just turn over without starting. The second problem seemed to be getting progressively worse- meaning that it would take more attempts to crank it. This past weekend it would not crank after many attempts. After troubleshooting most of the day i realized that the fuel pump seemed to be working only every now and then. I found a website that instructed how to make a tester to determine if it was a fuel pump relay issue on the tipm. Sure enough we were able to determine that the relay was the issue. It certainly seems that i am one among many people that are having problems with the tipm. I hope that they recognize the severity of the problem and resolve it swiftly. |
