Okee dokee then.

Trying to decide on the wiring for the dual fuel pump setup.


I have already decided that it won’t be simply splicing into the factory pump harness to feed both pumps.

Dual 4 pin relays or a single 5 pin.

pros and cons.

5 pin is easier for running the wiring, but if the relay dies so does the truck.

4 pin more wiring to run but I doubt both relays would go down at the same time so at least one pump will still be working.

The reason I’m so leery about the relays is I had one go down in the summer for my low beam headlights.

I don’t know. It came with the Ebay harness when I bought it. It would be a JD 1912 relay.

Amazon Amazon

This is what I’m thinking for the relay assembly.

The one on the right is the relay that came with the harness. The one on the left is the replacement from the Canadian equivalent to Harbour Freight ( Princess Auto ).
Both appear to be cheap chinesium.

May I recommend these?

While the integrated fuseblock in what you linked to is nice, I wonder about the quality of the relays.

I’m of no help, but I do recall SSJ has described how he wired up dual fuel pumps in the past. IIRC he used one as the primary and then the other was based on demand. You might search up his posts and find it if interested.

I’m not understanding the need for relays on both pumps. Why would you not use the factory harness to feed one and then wire in a relay for the secondary? School me sir.

FWIW, my in-tank Bosch 044 is powered by a dedicated, fused power line straight from the DS battery running through a relay triggered by the factory fuel pump power supply.

This is something I hadn’t even considered as an option. I was too focused on using the factory + as the trigger wire like noob has done. The school of thought was…this way each pump would be getting a dedicated 12v battery power while still retaining the 20sec KOEO feature.

As for the relays I have ordered the Amazon fuse/relay box I linked.

Will have to get some quality relays as replacements.

It’s a precaution in case the aftermarket pumps draw significantly more current than the factory pump.
