Relay Test
1.
Remove main relay, located near under dash fuse box.
2.
Attach battery positive terminal to No. 4 terminal, Fig. 34, and battery negative terminal to No. 8 terminal of main relay, then check for continuity
between Nos. 5 and 7 terminals.
3.
If there is no continuity, replace relay and repeat test.
4.
If there is continuity, attach battery positive terminal to No. 5 terminal and battery negative terminal to to No. 2 terminal of main relay, then check
for continuity between Nos. 1 and 3 terminals.
5.
If there is no continuity, replace relay and repeat test.
6.
If there is continuity, attach battery positive terminal to No. 3 terminal and battery negative terminal to No. 8 terminal of main relay, then check
continuity between Nos. 5 and 7 terminals.
7.
If there is continuity, but fuel pump still does not work, proceed to ``Harness Testing.''
8.
If there is no continuity, replace relay and repeat test.
Harness Test

With ignition switch in Off position, disconnect main relay connector.
2.
Check for continuity between black wire in connector and body ground.
3.
Attach positive probe of voltmeter to yellow/blue wire and negative probe to black wire.
4.
If there is no voltage, check wiring between battery and main relay as well as No. 1 fuse (10 amp, Accord) or ECU fuse (15 amp, 1987 Prelude; 10
amp, 1988 Prelude) in under hood relay box.
5.
