Ok guys I was looking through the forum for a similar issue and found nothing.
So my problem has been a downward spiral with my electric things on my car. When i first got the car the fuse to the fuel pump was a 10 and it's supposed to be a 15 and it would just crank and crank and I noticed the fuel pump wasn't turning on the 10 amp fuse was burnt at the bottom so I replaced it with a 15 amp, and it was fine. Well months later the car wouldn't start again. I pulled out the fuse checked it and it was fine. didn't blow put the fuse back in and it was fine car started up but after that every week it would do it again. the fuse is fine but it needed to be pulled out and put back in. It was getting progressively worse Instead of once a week I'd have to change it once a day, then 3 times a day, Until today, Now the car will crank and crank and the fuel pump will not prime at all anymore even though I replaced the fuse with 3 other 15 amp fuses. Do you think my pump went out? Or maybe the ground possibly got loose? Like I said it just kept getting progressively worse which makes me scratch my head. Any help would be greatly appreciated if you have a definitive answer or something that worked with you please pm me. Thank you.
