I started my apex and took it for a ride,then turned it off. I went to start it and turned the key to run position and the fuel pump did not come on and it would not start. Just wanting to know if anybodys knows if there is a fuse to the fuel pump or is the fuel pump just burned out?
Thanks

Take a test light and see if you have power at the pump. If not start working backwards. If there is power at the pump then i would say the pump is shot.

There is a 10A fuse i believe for the fuel system as well as a fuel injection relay. If you have the supplemental manual for the RX10ML it tells you how to diagnose the fuel system with codes and such. Its worth reading if your stuck.

If your looking at the front of your sled the fuse should be to your left (chain case side) along the delta box. Its where it is on mine anyway

Befor you go pulling fuese im gonna ask an obvious question because its happened to me, do you have a teather and if so did your try playing with it first. Cold weather tends to make the rubber shrink on them and can pull back just enough to shut off everything. Just a thought?

Thanks for the help. I will look for the fuse, and test the pump. I don't have a tather, just a key and a on/off switch.

This is good but i'd ask yourself a couple more questions first, is there power to your instrument panel ect. or is everything dead? A ground or loose wire around your ignition or on your battery would make it completely dead. If you have other power then what he said.

Check and make sure you jumper wires for the battery leads dint hit the oil tank, if the rubber sheilds were pulled to charge or jump your sled it will
pop your fuel system fuse, this has happend to me. good luck

Thanks for the help but found out I did have a blown fuse. I think I left the jumper cables bare. So I changed the fuse & the fuel pump kicked on & it started.
