If the relay in our Gs's go bad, is there a way to bypass them so i dont have to pay 80 billion dollars to buy a new one ?

You could just go to a local junkyard and get another or get one from someone on mx-3.com.

But yes, you can bypass the relay. It's just as easy to pick a new one up at the junkyard and not worry about having a hardwired fuel pump.

You could also get any generic relay and wire it in. I think a 30 Amp relay costs about $4.99 or something like that.

^^^ yeah its 4.99, but getting one form a junkyard is 4.99+tax cheaper and a lot easier than wiring in a relay

can someone shine some light on how-to ? it's going to be a while before I can afford a new one for 67.99 $ from the dealership and a lot longer before one pops up in the junkyards lolol..I went to 3 different ones today and i found one gs but the ecm and relay were ripped out...literally..

ew @ dealership.. ive seen them for around 30 at autoparts stores

I'm with him

Ok..so how do I wire in a 30 Amp relay to replace the OEM one ? Is that all it basically is ?

You could do it a few ways.
1. use a spade terminal to plug into the slots where the sotck one pugs into the fuse box and run the wires to the new one. Cut a small hole in the side of the lid of the fuse box so that you can run the wire out without pinching it.
2. You could take the fuse box out and then pull the terminals out of the sockets of the plastic and harwire them to the new wires. Run the new wires out the bottom of the box and to the new relay.

I'd check all parts stores for a stock replacement first. It will be alot cheaper and easier.

As for exact wiring, the generic relay will have the wiring instructions and the stock realy will have a diagram on top of it if I'm not mistaken.

There is a perfect diagram of the relay pin outs in the "Online Manual" from the home page.
Definitely recommend using a relay as hard wiring the system is NOT a good idea...

Alright purchased a new relay and it still dies XD man..this is pissing me off..lol..

Is the relay operating when you turn the ignition on?

Yeah I can hear it clicking when I try cranking the engine over.

Check your "Fuel Injector" fuse in the engine bay first thing.

If thats ok, your best bet is to check for power at the BLACK / RED wire on the relay. If you got power, check at the fuel pump under the back seat.

If no power at those we can work backwards to find where the fauls is.

Everything has power
