Hi! To directly test my in-tank fuel pump, i.e., to make sure that it's not a power delivery circuit problem, I've been counseled to supply battery, i.e., 12VDC, power directly to the pump, but I'm having a helluva time trying to find out precisely which two, of the five, plate-posts to supply the voltage to for this purpose (the person who counseled me to do this seems either unable or unwilling to tell me). So, the pump's power supply receptacle has five plate-posts in a line: two wide ones at either end of the line, and three narrower ones in between them; the two ends of the line can be distinguished by the fact that one side of the plug has a semicircular side, the other has a linear side. Can anyone please tell me precisely which two, of the five, plate-posts I need to supply the voltage difference across in order to directly test the pump? Thanks!
