1987-1991 Ford F-Series: Fuel pump power/wiring

Fri, 03 Apr 2026 15:09:45 -0700

I have a 1989 airex airmax motorhome. It's on a f35 chassis, Ford 460 engine and a 30 gallon tank.it has a pump in the tank and a inline pump near the engine that connects to a filter then goes to my fuel rail.

My intank pump went out awhile ago and I replaced it however I cant get power to it through the wiring harness when I turn my key.

The harness has 3 wires, one positive for the pump, a ground, and the wire for the floater. None are pulling electricity.

I know I can wire the pump to my rvs big battery on the side and attach a toggle switch so I can turn it off, but I really don't want to unless I have to.

Where would I start diagnosing the problem? Ignition sequence? Redo the wiring harness with fresh wires and dressing?

Ford Edge: Car radio and key fob doesnt work properly.

Fri, 03 Apr 2026 08:46:50 -0700

So, I had checked all of my 2015 Ford Edge's fuses. All fuses connected to all radio and keyless functions are working properly. What i dont get is that: my radio isnt working as it should be. Its stuck on the AM radio but it wont change stations. I tried taking the negative off my battery to reset the computer, hoping it would at least get it to work. Nothing. I even did a different kind of reset to see if that would work. Nope. So, it's stuck.

Not to mention that my key fob isn't working correctly either. For starters, I have to shove it down my armrest onto a part of it where I think the RFA Module is. Or antenna to it is. I dont know. Unlocking and locking works normally. But auto start and trying to start it with the push button just doesnt work, except in the armrest. For over 1.5 years, I have been unable to figure out why this is happening. Does anyone have any knowledge on how to fix this? Maybe at least fix the radio part?

Ford F-Series: Replaced all shocks now truck is super bouncy

Replace the front shocks on my 2010 F-150 4×4 with the bilstein 5100's, and put rough country shocks for 4 to 7 inch lift along with the 5 inch lift blocks in the rear. Now truck is very bouncy and the pinion seal leaks. What did I do wrong?

2009-2014 Ford F-150: I can get the drivers seat to go backwards but it refuses to return fo

Fri, 27 Mar 2026 08:50:48 -0700

I can get the driver's electronic seat to move backwards but not return forward. There's no debris of any kind stopping the seat from returning forward.

The electronic button on the four door 2013 F-150 is found on the side on the left side of the seat -- just to clarify that this is not an overseas vehicle for those who understand military installation life. My feet no longer touch the pedals (even when they come all the way out to me) so it's basically only my husband's truck and nothing for me. Yet there's time it's absolutely mandatory for me to care for it.

How can this be fixed so it's a shared vehicle once again? Thank you ahead of time for your answers in solving this strange issue!
