I spent $700 replacing the fuel pump, and that wasn’t the problem. I watched your video bought a new fuel pump relay and the problem is now solved. Much love thank you.!
Can't thank you enough! Went to go to work and 97 BMW 318is cranked but wouldn't fire up. Went to Autozone. $20.00 and five minutes later I was on the road again. Thanks brother!
I'm having the same issue replaced the battery and now this started noticing the idle dropping could this be the same fix and is the fuse box in the same place i drive a 99 740il.
I hope you will read this even after 7 years of posting this video. You have saved me a fortune. Tried many things to start the car. Couldn’t figure it out. Yesterday I sae this video. Went to the BMW dealership, got me the relay and just like that, it fixed my car. Much love brother
Peace Oscar,I was on a road trip and my car did the same thing. I was blessed to see your video because it fixed the problem 👍 thanks for sharing this with the BMW world. Appreciate it
I swapped the fuse to test and my 06 X5 cranked right up... Oscar Ruiz-Autorepair thanks a MILLION!!!! I just literally put $800 into it the week before and didn't want to take it back to the dealership. Really appreciate this video - thanks again!!!
I don't see the need for negative comments, but my X5 was doing the exact same thing and I figured it couldn't hurt to try a $20 part and give it a shot, and it works!!!! The only difference is that my relay is located in the back hatch on the passenger side thank you so much for this video! As you stated you saved me a headache, grief, worry and most of all money!!!
I'm having the same issues now I've had intermittent I believe they call emobalized issues it's a immobilizable issue's graph to get in the car and start it it would even turn over watch the ton of videos and came up with that emobalizer so I'd roll the windows down up own up lock and unlock the doors while you're in it get out unlock it with the key lock it with the key that did it again got in 9 out of 10 times that did stopped at it and I heard that's the immobilizer now I sure now I even put a new Ignition in it and I can hear the fuel pump buzzing I don't know what to do now I don't have the money to go through a ton of stuff any help? Up? Hopefully it's the fuel this the fuel thing that it's been fine other than I think the security not letting it start before now it's turned over or before it wouldn't even turn over
this reminds me of my 1995 525i fuel pump going bad. It stalled at the gas station. Immediately called my next door neighbor (another DIY guy) and explained whats happening. He said get a hold of a rubber mallet and uncover the trunk matting exposing the fuel pump cover. I ask someone to "whack" that particular area of the trunk floor while Im trying to start the car. On the count of three we simultaneously crank the ignition and pound on the cover. Voila! the engine started. Drove home and replaced the fuel pump the next day. lol
similar problems on 1950/60/70s BMC cars. MGBs and Morris 1000 had the fuel pump installed adjacent to the right hand rear wheel well, exposed to water (and slat in UK winters). If the fuel pump wasn't ticking when the ignition was switched on a whack with a piece of wood would often get it going again. Of course in those days you could strip and clean the pump and the contacts so a replacement pump wasn't always required.
BRO THANK YOU !!!!!! I simply took out the relay and reinstalled it and my Shity E60 started right up.. lol. Now I'm on my way to buy a new Relay just in case. Again thanks for this video...
Great video , if my scan tool says fuel pump is operating correctly and it still won't fire , I changed my fuel injectors because it was running so rich so even if I scan and says fuel pump good do I change the relay?
Could this be the problem as to why I got the fuel supply error on the dashboard on my f30? My car stopped out of nowhere and wouldnt start (it sounded like this in the video) until I unlocked and locked my car then it worked right after.
Nah what’s the fun in that. couple little sparks won’t hurt 😉. (I’m completely joking by the way but I’ve also never actually disconnected the battery to replace a fuse/relay 😳
This seems to be a common problem on these cars. My E90 323i LCI N52 is doing the same thing after it cools down. Starts perfectly on a cold winter morning at - 30 C. I drive it to work and then park it for 8 hours on that same day. After work, the engine turns but will not start. Even with a full tank of premium petrol, a new battery, a new fuel pump, no check engine light, no OBD2 diagnostic codes, the car will not start. My car has an electronic fuel control unit near the passenger side rear seat instead of a fuel relay. Problem ended up being water in the fuel. Resolution: Added a couple of bottles of gas line antifreeze/water remover, waited a few hours and car starts and runs normally. Now I'm not sure if it's condensation from extreme temperature fluctuations or bad gas from the gas station but from now on when I fill up in the winter, I will always add a bottle or two of gas line antifreeze/water remover.
Sound good to me in-7 i had same problem been work good and when in to home havent started even long cranking ! than after 3/4 time later start than seemd okay with few more starts Im going to use your formula lets see is it my problem or not . thanks anyway
I only have the right white relay and not the left one which you replaced. There’s not even a slot for the one you replaced. Anybody have any idea where the fuel pump relay is located in 2005 bmw 530d e61?
Hey there, new to BMW. I have a 2007 740Li. It intermittently would shut down each time you tried starting it. Had to open the trunk and wiggle the negative battery cable then the power would be restored. One night it shut down completely. It cranks good but will not start. Could I have a similar problem? Also, where is my fuel relay located? I think it's im the trunk. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks again
Can use some advise on 06 X5 E53 now turns over but not start. I bought s new ignition off Ebay and still apart, Key also sticks in start position that happened when 1st trying to start out of store when I shut it off at store and immediately turned off and tried to start and it just turned over. I bought an ignition box off Ebay installed it and same thing. Before that it won't turn over and I learned how to get it to start by doing a lock unlock sequence and all doors & windows closed... Love this X5 but been big start problems.
It can also be the ground cable on the front left side (under the car) and very common on BMW 1 series just say it. And watch this: DTC P0230The ECM monitors the circuit for voltage. If voltage malfunctions, it will set P0230, which is defined as “ - Circuit Malfunction.” “Circuit Malfunction” indicates that there is a malfunction in the control circuit, as opposed to a in a sensor or other component. AND: Crank, no start is often fuel or fuel components. If it cranks then there is most likely not an electrical problem. If it was just recently running then it is most likely not an engine problem. Thus, what is left are fuel components. If your vehicle has good fuel and is full of fuel then the most likely culprits are: a weak fuel relay, a bad fuel filter, or a bad fuel pump. If the car was recently running with no hesitation then it most likely is not a bad fuel pump. That then leavesthe fuel relay and/or fuel filter as the most likely culprits. from: christansdad
My car sometimes starts on the first ignition key turn, but recently I often have to turn the key a few times before it starts. And the engine sometimes shuts off while driving. I got to restart the engine to continue driving. Can you make a guess what's going on?
I had same problem with 320i 2008. We pulled all fuses out and put them back in and it started. No cost! Though the keyless entry stopped working. I put the little fuse in the wrong place. All good now!
Adrian van wichen I’m going to try this. I have 08 328i and I been having a no crank no start issue. I called the dealership and they want $148 per hr and that’s just to find the issue
I got a question bro, will it be jerking and stop then hard to start? Mine have this problem yesterday which i got a smal white smoke come up before start and it went back to normal. After i park it start to do like this, jerk and stop then hard to start. I do some reboot but still the same. So tge fuel relay pump is the problem? Mine same series 525i
Same problem with our 2006 X5, but different cause. After watching a few video's of troubleshooting (checking a bunch of fuses and relays). I decided to start looking at the silent fuel pump [which should make a faint humming when starting]. Pulled the rear seat [no tools required] and disconnected the fuel pump harness [on passenger side]. Supply power was good. Jumped the pump motor and it was dead. Besides waiting for a replacement pump, the entire job was 15 minutes of work [which is less time than following the troubleshooting instructions].
Hi, i need help with my car problem, the problem is my car crank but won't start, i checked injector signal, there's no signal, i checked ignition coil, there's also no signal, then i checked all fuse and relay, there's no fault. After that i checked all the wiring on engine, there's no problem with the wire harness, lastly i checked the ecm/ecu, i bring it to ecu repair shop they checked no faulty and i pay charge for checking usd60, after that, i try to start again, its still won't start, then i bring the ecm/ecu again to the bmw agent for checking with charge usd100, they also said there's no faulty with the ecu/ecm. I checked the fuel pump its working, i checked the pressure of fuelpump its working perfect. I checked the immobiliser, also no problem, Im still wondering with the problem and why my ignition coil and injector no power and no signal. Fault code on obd is P0341, P101b and P1061 , i tried clear, after a few minutes its appear again, anyone know what the problem? My car BMW 320i E90 2006, engine N46
I am the same breakdown. However, it is a big problem that my 7 series does not have a relay. It will cost a lot because the airbag module needs to be replaced. I saw the video well.
Hey I couldn't find the fuel pump relay in Glove Compartment on my e60 525i 2008 Where can it be...because it's cranking but no start...help pliz ,I ended up changing a fuel pump but still cranks
Man i will try it. And even though if it wont work. Thank you for showing and saving money on those damn dealership mechanics who make use pocket empty.
I’ve got a bmw 118d 2005 when I pulled up to work it cut out… then when started knocked off on its own now it just cranks brings a fault for injector 4 but apparently everything is good Any idea?
Hi dear I have fuel relay fuse in my F10 2011 523i I couldn't locate it Can you help me locate the relay fuel fuse in my F10 I would appreciate that Thank you
My bmw e60 525d msport 2005 fuel pump fuses are blowing. Even without turning the key. When i just put the fuse in, it just blows with a spark and little smelly smoke. It is fuse number 50 of 20amps placed in the boot above the battery in the fuse box.. Any idea ? Please help..
Hey brother I just replaced the Fuel Pump myself ($1,500 estimate from dealer, $300 part) in my 2008 BMW E60 550i and after successfully changing the part, it would not crank over. Saw your video, called the dealer, and they said they would have changed the Fuel Pump Relay as well in the package deal they quoted me, so I went and paid $25 for the part, she started right up! Thank you so much man, subscribed and liked. :)
Hi. Where did you find your fuel pump relay in your vehicle? I have a E60, 2008 528xi and have the same problem but can't find where the relay is? I bought a new one at the dealer for $25 and fingers crossed it fixes the issue. Thanks!
My 2006 BMW X5 3.0i won't start either, very similar as this vehicle. However, my problem is a little different, but may require same solution. It started with a brief tapping noise behind the firewall on passenger's side (where the glove box is located), directly after shutting off the ignition. But no problems starting/running, until about 7-10 days later, when it died while idling in a parking lot. However, it restarted okay - then died in traffic about one-half mile away...grrr. BMW is parked, dead in the water, after the $150 tow job. I am going to give this Fuel Pump Relay solution a try, because it's worth the nominal investment - especially if it works. Thank you.
Hey Oscar, i saw this video and i had a quick question. I have a 2009 BMW x5 and i wondereed where you got the number of the relay. Thanks so much great videos 👍
It's 1 am and i cant sleep. My BMW has been parked at the gym for 3 days, wont start! Put a new fuel pump in it today for no fucking reason. Been binge watching vids on the problem. I think you showed me just what I need to do. Damit!!!!!!!!! Tomorrow relay change, i got a good feeling. No other vids mentioned anything about relay!!!!
I'm having the same issue I even put a new admission in this 06 BMW X5E53I drove it to the store turned it off after that just turned over when it started when in the star came out the same thing I was having intermittent not doing anything mean it wouldn't turn over anything and it's no running thing and I learned that it was just a mobilizer because I would roll the windows down roll them up trip the alarm use the key to unlock it get out use to lock it use the key to unlock the door got in 9 out of 10 times we'll start or I'll go through the sequence again I'm wondering if minus the immobilizer itself I don't know anybody can help me here please do and sit in my backyard for 2 months and I need to use it
I'm trying to locate this relay on my 06 X5 4.8is. Bought the relay, but looked at rear fuse box, glove box fuse box, under steering wheel! Can't find it! 🤔 Wanna start there before checking fuel pump, etc. She cranks, but no love.
hey Oscar the fuel rail has pressure so i assume the pump runs but then i have spark but no run any ideas what the cause could be its a 735i N62 motor 2204 model..
On the 2009 328i X drive, I don't think there is a fuel pump relay. They only have the fuel pump control module it is located in the trunk on passenger side. You will need to pull the insulator to get to it. I hope this helps you.
Hey I'm having the same issue 2006 525xi. I have replaced ekpm3 and coded. I can get ista to Manually active fuel pump but I can't get dme to do it when I test the module. Help please don't wanna go to stealership
@@oscars-autorepair3236 Hi, sometimes this happens to my 2009 x5 will this be the same procedure? Besides not starting how can you check the fuel pump relay I mean does any connections look burn or something like that? Please help... Thank you in advance!
Hi I have a 2011 5 series f10 20 diesel I was driving and the car went into limp mode and stopped and wouldn't turn over all the power was on and engine would crank but not turn over could it be This?? I asked someone to check they sprayed brake cleaner somewhere under the engine and it started and he he thinks it's the fuel is not getting to the engine?? What could it be
Hey did it work? I have an e87 116i and it only does this after it has bee running for some time when the engine is warm. If i shut it and try to start again, it just turns once without ignition and the it normally starts again at the third attempt.
Just a note: At 2:30 on the video turning over is always confused or mixed in with cranking and running, your car is clearly turning over but not starting which is also same as cranking but not starting,
try changing what i changed (the fuel pump relay) and see if it fixes the issue. If it dose not, it may be your fuel pump not working properly. I hope this helps answer your question.
Hello Oscar, My 04 745Li has been giving me issues for a while. It started with misfires. I've replaced 8 Coil Packs, Plugs, Mass Air Sensor, Manifold Absolute Pressure sensor, 4 Eccentric VVT Solenoids, Fuel Pump & Fuel Filter Regulator, Under Valve Cover Eccentric Shaft Sensors, Integrated Power Module, New PCV Hoses, PVC Valve in both Valve Covers and I havent replaced the Crank Sensor yet. I keep getting a Code that relates to P1057 Manufacturer Control Fuel & Air Metering Auxiliary Emissions Control. It cranks but no start. I clear codes and the Fuel & Air code doesnt clear. Please Help it has 144k miles.
No, the car would Just not turn over each time I attempted to turn it on. Just keep in mind it may be other issues causing the car not to turn over but I started from the lease expensive issues I just happen to get lucky it was just a simple fix such as a relay
I spent $700 replacing the fuel pump, and that wasn’t the problem. I watched your video bought a new fuel pump relay and the problem is now solved. Much love thank you.!
If your pump doesn’t prime. It’s a sign that the pump is dead

Can you help me locate the relay fuel fuse in my F10

My bmw e60 525d msport 2005 fuel pump fuses are blowing. Even without turning the key. When i just put the fuse in, it just blows with a spark and little smelly smoke. It is fuse number 50 of 20amps placed in the boot above the battery in the fuse box.. Any idea ? Please help..

Hey brother I just replaced the Fuel Pump myself ($1,500 estimate from dealer, $300 part) in my 2008 BMW E60 550i and after successfully changing the part, it would not crank over. Saw your video, called the dealer, and they said they would have changed the Fuel Pump Relay as well in the package deal they quoted me, so I went and paid $25 for the part, she started right up! Thank you so much man, subscribed and liked. :)
Nice!!!! its amazing how one small relay can cause a lot of headaches. I am glade you got your car running again.
Hi. Where did you find your fuel pump relay in your vehicle? I have a E60, 2008 528xi and have the same problem but can't find where the relay is? I bought a new one at the dealer for $25 and fingers crossed it fixes the issue. Thanks!
Sad thing is that if your relay was bad, then your pump probably wasn't... It's possible that they both were bad, but unlikely.
ended up being the wiring to the relay but without your video ID never known where to start
nice...i am glad to hear you are back on the road.
What did you do for the wiring? I changed my relay and it cut off on me while driving again. I just put the old one back in and it started right up?
@@zillahedghill1135 ground cable?
My 2006 BMW X5 3.0i won't start either, very similar as this vehicle. However, my problem is a little different, but may require same solution. It started with a brief tapping noise behind the firewall on passenger's side (where the glove box is located), directly after shutting off the ignition. But no problems starting/running, until about 7-10 days later, when it died while idling in a parking lot. However, it restarted okay - then died in traffic about one-half mile away...grrr. BMW is parked, dead in the water, after the $150 tow job. I am going to give this Fuel Pump Relay solution a try, because it's worth the nominal investment - especially if it works. Thank you.
Please let us know if it worked for you. Thanks for your feedback
Great tip
Thank. You. So. Much. Bro
Hey Oscar, i saw this video and i had a quick question. I have a 2009 BMW x5 and i wondereed where you got the number of the relay. Thanks so much great videos 👍
Will an e93 one work in an e90 ?
It's 1 am and i cant sleep. My BMW has been parked at the gym for 3 days, wont start! Put a new fuel pump in it today for no fucking reason. Been binge watching vids on the problem. I think you showed me just what I need to do. Damit!!!!!!!!! Tomorrow relay change, i got a good feeling. No other vids mentioned anything about relay!!!!
Please let me know if it works
Did it work?
C'mon man, you gotta tell if it worked. Lol

Hey I have I a bmw 528i 2011 it does the same thing and wont start what should I do
I am having this problem on my 2008 BMW 528i, but that doesn’t seem like the location for my fuel pump relay fuse.
Thank you bro,Te debo la vida,me funciono😀
Does the 2002 model have this? Mine has been sitting in the garage for like 3 or 4 years...
it does but you have to take the glove box off and its behind the fuses
I'm trying to locate this relay on my 06 X5 4.8is. Bought the relay, but looked at rear fuse box, glove box fuse box, under steering wheel! Can't find it! 🤔 Wanna start there before checking fuel pump, etc. She cranks, but no love.
Did you try in the rear hatch on the passenger side? I have a 08 x5 and that's where mine was
I have a 525D 3.0 engine and it wont start, the fuel is going to the engine but not starting just what could it be the problem?
what is the OEM part number for this relay?
hey Oscar the fuel rail has pressure so i assume the pump runs but then i have spark but no run any ideas what the cause could be its a 735i N62 motor 2204 model..
Try spraying some starter fluid on the intake throttle, and if it cranks up like it wants to run, than change your fuel pump.
Where is the fuel pump relay on a 328i x drive 2009 located? I'm having the same cranking no start situation
On the 2009 328i X drive, I don't think there is a fuel pump relay. They only have the fuel pump control module it is located in the trunk on passenger side. You will need to pull the insulator to get to it. I hope this helps you.
you can get the fuel pump control module online for 30-60 bucks.
Hey I'm having the same issue 2006 525xi. I have replaced ekpm3 and coded. I can get ista to Manually active fuel pump but I can't get dme to do it when I test the module. Help please don't wanna go to stealership
@@oscars-autorepair3236 Hi, sometimes this happens to my 2009 x5 will this be the same procedure? Besides not starting how can you check the fuel pump relay I mean does any connections look burn or something like that? Please help...
Thank you in advance!
Does this work for 3 series too?
Is this same with 2006 e60??
Hi I have a 2011 5 series f10 20 diesel I was driving and the car went into limp mode and stopped and wouldn't turn over all the power was on and engine would crank but not turn over could it be This?? I asked someone to check they sprayed brake cleaner somewhere under the engine and it started and he he thinks it's the fuel is not getting to the engine?? What could it be
In order...fuel relay, fuel filter, fuel pump, fuel injection system.
You're the mannn! Let me try that and let you know what happens.
Well what happened?
Well?????
WELL
I will try this tomorrow 🙏🏾
Just use the original relay/fush removal tool. Not feddling with screwdrivers.
Hi can anyone help me, whers the location of this switch in bmw m2
nice video thank you, save time and money.. love it post more anything you have problem .
The obd scanner shows the fuel pump rele problem?
God bless you sir
I have an old BMW 1998 series. Sometimes I have the same problem. I will try doing it myself. thanks
Just bought a used 3031 CI and it has this exact problem. Going to buy relay tomorrow, worth a try! Will advise!
Hey did it work? I have an e87 116i and it only does this after it has bee running for some time when the engine is warm. If i shut it and try to start again, it just turns once without ignition and the it normally starts again at the third attempt.
Did it work?
@@morganu.3643 I had the starter motor replaced and the problem is gone. I'm no longer living in fear when I have to press the start button anytime :)
@@lindabenton1436 i just bought a 740i
@@morganu.3643 Congrats on your purchase. I always wanted the e39 530i but for some reasons I ended up going for the e87.
It is a lot hope. I was thinking to get rid this car. I hope it works. I paid a lot to diagnose the problem and still doing it
Ciao la mia bmw 530 d anno 2005 non parte errore ced418. Mi sai dire che tipo di errore .cosa controllare.grazie
Just a note: At 2:30 on the video turning over is always confused or mixed in with cranking and running, your car is clearly turning over but not starting which is also same as cranking but not starting,
I have a 2004 325i & it has the same problem does that mean I have to change whatever you changed or can it be something else ?
try changing what i changed (the fuel pump relay) and see if it fixes the issue. If it dose not, it may be your fuel pump not working properly. I hope this helps answer your question.
What was the replacement relay number,my auto stores can't find it
but does your engine gets fuel in this scenario?
Hello Oscar, My 04 745Li has been giving me issues for a while. It started with misfires. I've replaced 8 Coil Packs, Plugs, Mass Air Sensor, Manifold Absolute Pressure sensor, 4 Eccentric VVT Solenoids, Fuel Pump & Fuel Filter Regulator, Under Valve Cover Eccentric Shaft Sensors, Integrated Power Module, New PCV Hoses, PVC Valve in both Valve Covers and I havent replaced the Crank Sensor yet. I keep getting a Code that relates to P1057 Manufacturer Control Fuel & Air Metering Auxiliary Emissions Control. It cranks but no start. I clear codes and the Fuel & Air code doesnt clear. Please Help it has 144k miles.
Morris, I will look this up when I get home. And help you get thru this! am in Cancun Mexico.
@@oscars-autorepair3236 Oscar, excellent video, and apparently a common problem. I've just done this repair (successfully) on an E53 diesel.
Did u get a ignition switch on by any chance let me know thanx
No, the car would Just not turn over each time I attempted to turn it on. Just keep in mind it may be other issues causing the car not to turn over but I started from the lease expensive issues I just happen to get lucky it was just a simple fix such as a relay
