Love an engine unboxing, pull, and install. Looks like the van has had a fuel pump relay bypass install. Common issue for a TIPM in which the internal fuel pump relay fails. Chrysler has a kit they use on Jeeps for this same issue, but since the TIPM is common across most models, the external relay fix is used for the other models as well as it is much cheaper than a TIPM replacement.
@nonotthatoneguy3 ай бұрын
I would agree with the TIPM. I've repaired mine and for a couple of friends for about $10 in relays with shipping and a lot of experience in electronics repair. The relay kit is easy and cheap, albeit kind of janky. But, it works fine, especially when the cost of a TPIM is more than the value of the older vehicles.
