99 2.0 intermitant fuel pump - Ducati man
Hi all,

Just thought I would add this one as well as I had this problem earlier this year. got in the car one morning ignition on but no fuel pump delivery, checked all fuses connections to the pump and relay all fine. for no reason it righted it's self but a few days later same thing happened again and had to have the car transported home.
The fault turned out to be a bad connection in the multi plug connector, this lies directly behind the battery just to the left of the ecu.
There is also another multi plug just below this one, I also cleaned the connectors in this as well.
I used the wife's emery board as both connectors have male pins as opposed to male female, bit of a strange set up but there you go.
Hope this helps.

Regards to all

Steve.
