I cant believe you ignored the possibility of it being the relay 303 in the fuse box in the cabin on the passenger side. this is the last fuel pump relay before voltage goes to the pump. its not a removable plug n play type but soldered to a circuit board. replacing the entire fuse block is hella expensive but if you know how to solder its a $12 fix. And your video never even mentioned it. And once you remove the 4 pin connector you can diagnose the pump and that relay before even crawling under the truck or taking the tank off the truck and possibly finding the pump is actually ok.
One of the greatest aspects of car culture, and especially in the “hands-on” world of “fixing cars,” nobody knows it all, and there’s always more to learn. Frequently we get to share what we know to help others enjoy the best in vehicle maintenance and repair. But when inaccurate advice or information is presented, and others can be diverted from reliable and correct information it can result in lost time and energy. Yet the comment above is based on incorrect information and misleading to others. Naturally, it will be helpful to provide you and others with facts about how "ignoring" the model year matters significantly. The summary conclusion, “I can’t believe you ignored the possibility of it being the relay 303 in the fuse box in the cabin …” is simply not accurate for a 2000 F-150. None of what was offered in the above comment above will help an owner of a "2000 model" Ford F-150. This Haynes video that included the "one" fuel-pump relay located only under the hood is precise and correct to the wiring diagram for this vehicle. What could have been ignored or simply overlooked in this Haynes video is this is a “2000 model” F-150. The 2000 F-150 was not manufactured with a ‘relay 303’ inside, or a fuse/junction box in the "cabin." The "only" fuel-pump relay on the 2000 model Ford F-150 is located in the fuse/relay junction box “under the hood” (exactly as it is accurately identified, demonstrated and tested in this Haynes video). Leading others - and especially anyone who may also miss that this is a “2000” model F-150 platform (and NOT a 2004 or later Ford F-150) - could and would cause folks to lose time looking inside the cabin as the comment posted from "Wingtipsworld" above suggests. Yet still the basic tests, strategy and awareness education for viewers looking for helpful insights that also apply to many other brands and models of vehicles can benefit from the education of this video, too. In 2004 Ford changed the circuits with the refresh of the F-150, and starting in "2004" the fuel pump relay is located in the Central Junction Block and is no longer serviceable as you described under the passenger side. If we were covering this diagnostic about a "2004" or later, we would have also referenced a "wiring diagram" for the later model. We didn't 'ignore' being accurate for the 2000 model year. Sometimes the correct model year may be “overlooked,” yet hopefully the clarification of what could have been ignored about the correct model-year for wiring diagram reference in particular will help others, as well. Best of continued safe and enjoyable driving and maintenance/repair successes to you and others ahead.🛠️ - Steve Ford # # #
Its a good video, but has a big problem From the time you stepped out of the cab, the next procedure would be to check the 20 amp pump fuse and the realy under the hood. Why would you skip this issue?.
Yes, the rhythms of the harmonic balancer in tune with the exotic fruit of the power train. What a brilliant cosmic insight about fuel pumps! They grow on trees? 🌳
There isn’t a ‘fuel pump relay’ located under the driver’s seat, or anywhere inside the truck cabin on a 2000 model year F-150. (Please see the comment/reply to the viewer’s suggestion to “solder” a relay to replace a “303 relay” in the Haynes video 2000 F-150 above.)
Just a question, instead of putting the truck on a lift dropping the tank a bit draining the fuel then putting the tank on the ground to change out the fuel pump why didn't you just pull off the bed or at least pull back the bed where you would have easy access to the top of the fuel tank? Is there a reason to not do it that way? I have plans to do that in the next few days, and a reply would be appreciated. Thank you. I bought my first Haynes manual when I was 16 and that was 40 years ago. I have a manual for every car that I've ever bought.
MY F-150 DIED SUDDENLY. CRANKED BUT NO START. CHECKED ALL FUSES. CONFIRMED FUEL PUMP OPERATION. WATCHED EVERY RUclips VIDEO I COULD FIND. NO HELP. EVENTUALLY TOWED VEHICLE TO COOK FORD. THE PROBLEM............. CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR. REPLACED. MY TRUCK IS 100%. 230K MILES.
Thanks for cheering this video is helping really good 👍
Most cars don't use that Schrader valve anymore. It's much harder to get that fuel pressure reading. I spray starting fluid to check for fuel.
SURELY YOU CHECK FOR A SPARK ON THE PLUG/S BEFORE BUYING A GAS CAN AND DOING A FUEL TEST - SPARK ON PLUGS IS THE SIMPLEST TEST
Thank you for the video.

I didn’t know Fuel Pump consider a fruit. Really exotic

What does th fuel relay switch look like under the drivers seat
There isn’t a ‘fuel pump relay’ located under the driver’s seat, or anywhere inside the truck cabin on a 2000 model year F-150.

Where is the crankshaft sensor located on Honda CR-V Rd1 b20b engine
its under the blinker fluid housing.

@@donleebarnett they put it on a lift because it was easy
Where can I get a Haynes car repair manual cheap
they mention you can get any manual online from them for the price of a lifetime membership.
Thenyou so much Haynes to techer to me .
My wife cut some wires under the drivers seat now it will crank but not start
i need a manual for ford f150 year 2000 cant afford one Haynes. please donate one
