Wiring harness/fuel pump

[wicky]

Hey guys im trying to finish up 5.3 swap in my 69. Its a 5.3 out of an 04 Avalanche. I sent the harness off to be stripped and cleaned up. I have 2 relays. One labeled main and one for my fuel pump. My question is my fuel pump relay has a green and white wire that comes out of the ecm plugged in where u would put a 12v key switch wire. And the main relay has a key switch plugged into the same spot. My problem is the fuel pump has no switch power to trigger the relay. Is the green/white wire correct and i just have something hooked up wrong somewhere else? Or are my relays possibly wired up wrong by mistake.

I just reworked my harness, and if memory serves me, the green/white wire is correct from the ecm. The relay should have a 12v+ battery power source to one side of the relay, and the wire to the fuel pump coming out the other.

The ECM provides the switched power for the relay, this lets the computer run the fuel pump power and shutoff if there is a catastrophic failure.

You can wire the green and white to a switched 12v, running off the key. This is the "oldschool" way of doing it, and some here have their truck that way, but the computer gives you a simpler and safer solution.

Touch that switched wire to a 12v and see if your fuel pump turns on; if not, you either have a dead pump, or a wiring problem further up on the 12v HOT wire to the pump. If it does, then you have something wired wrong coming off the ecm, or a problem with the ecm.

Why don't you ask they guys that redid your harness?

Thanks guys. I have touched my fuel pump wire straiggt to a battery source and it runs. Ill do some more checking to see if i have any other wires unhooked something like that.
