Re: Trunk Fuel Resistor

If I get a chance this weekend, I'll throw a ohm meter across mine and see what it says.

What's the quickest way to access it? (I know the vague location.)

Cheers,
Ian.

that would be greatly appreciated. Its under the rear deck, behind the trunk liner between the two speakers. I ended up taking the pop-its off to allow the whole cover to come off. I don't know if there was/is an easier way.

Also special thanks from me Ian.

Please make sure that the resistor is disconnected when you measure it, otherwise existing circuitry in parallel could upset the reading. No doubt I am stating the obvious and asking you to suck eggs. LOL

Re: Trunk Fuel Resistor

Hi,

I got a chance to pull the trim and check the resistor.

I get 1.3 Ohms, with the leads providing about 0.3Ohms of that.

So, seem like it's a 1 Ohm resistor.

Hope that helps!
Ian.

Special thanks Ian, removing the trim must have taken some time.

The reported problem:-

(1) “When I got the engine running normal, I would unplug the fuel control module from under the deck lid, yet the car would continue to run normally.”

(2) “Yet when I unplug it (The resistor), the car starts. When its plugged in it does not.”

Ian, unfortunate that I have to call on you again but only then can we move forwards as the situation is completely confusing.

I must ask you to please confirm that the resistor was disconnected when it was measured.

Again thanks, Trevor.
