However, here is Step 3 copied-pasted from this other thread:

3). Next, insert the FP relay into the socket and turn the ignition SW @ ON position (not start):

87...........has power => should read no power (because power is present only when cranking)
87a.........no power => should read has power (because ignition is turned on)
86...........no power => should read has power (because ignition is turned on)
85...........should have ground contact
30...........no power but exhibit ground contact.


Look at post #28 page 2:

I made a big mistake in giving you the wrong information. Test#3 should have the same results as test #2. Surprised nobody noticed the blunder!!!!!

For test#3: FP relay installed, ignition SW @ RUN.
87...........no power
87a.........has power
86...........has power
85...........should have ground
30...........no power

Test I. Remove the air filter and lift the AFS plate to activate the FP for a second or two (no longer). Ignition SW @ RUN.

Test II. Remove FP relay (ignition SW @ RUN): Bridge terminal 87a and 30............similar test as test I to activate the FP manually.

Let us know if you could run the FP by doing these two (2) tests. If both tests (I & II) failed to activate the FP, we'll do next is to trace the point to point connection. There could be a loose connection to the FP from the relay. Keep us posted.

Wazzz,

Good you noticed the blunder. And I had corrected it (see post #28). But some people still missed the correction and quote the erroneous post.
