TIPM Bypass Cable, Fuse Holder Fuse Adapter,Repair Fuel Pump Relay Bypass Cable Compatible with Dodge Ram 1500 2500 3500 Jeep Chrysler VW 2007-2016, 14AWG Wire/20AMPs Replace CBWPR091AA

It was ready for installation. The cable has two fuse connections on each end of the cable. I used both fuses (all of which were provided) on the cable end connecting to the auxiliary relay for both the fuel pump and auxiliary ports to work simultaneously. The other end that plugs into the old pump relay fuse location, I needed to determine which fuse location on the cable went to the other end of the cable so that I could remove the fuse that would have connected the pump relay . I did this to avoid the bad pump relay from sticking open and killing my battery. Multimeter was my friend. Worked great! Still working great after several weeks.

Quick and easy

Worked perfect

I like the fact that you can also use this as a test cable if you're unsure whether it's the fuel pump or TIPM (relay). I WISH I had ordered this BEFORE I assumed it was the fuel pump (294k mi) and changed it out. I'm not upset that I replaced it, as it was the original pump and I'm approaching 300K mi. I'm upset that I had to wrangle with that tank with 20gal of gas in it.I would have just used the cable temporarily until I emptied the tank, and THEN changed out my fuel pump. Either way, the cable works fine, and I don't see any reason why it couldn't be a long term (temporary) fix....other than the following things I noticed:The cable is basically a jumper used to get power from another source in your fuse box over to the fuel pump circuit. Using the M7 circuit (which has "always on" and "on with key" slots) allows you to get power to your fuel pump. I used the "on with key" slot so that the pump will only run when the key (ignition) is turned on.The issue that I see with this is that now the fuel pump will ALWAYS be on (and running) as long as the key is in the on position. Also, when you get to your destination and turn off the ignition, the pump will/should continue to run until you break the circuit (by opening your door)....just like with your radio.This isn't too much of a problem as the fuel pump should be fine (although it may wear prematurely because it is always on). The problem would be in the case of an incident where someone may not be able to open the door to break the circuit. Turning the key off and taking it out of the ignition wouldn't turn the fuel pump off, and god forbid there is a tank or fuel line rupture. Fuel would continue to pump and that could be devastating.With a working relay in place, your fuel pump should turn off when there's adequate fuel pressure in the line, and when you turn off the ignition, the pump stops automatically (no need to break the circuit). If I were to consider using this bypass cable long term or on a more permanent basis, I would look for either a circuit that is "ONLY" on when the key is turned on (so that the pump would turn off immediately when the key is turned off), or add a cut-off switch to the circuit that I could switch on/off. The ideal solution would be to install a new relay to bypass the onboard TIPM relay circuit, or have your TIPM repaired professionally if you're unable to DIY.BUT......in a pinch, this cable is probably.....NO DEFINITELY......one of the best things to have in your glove box. Because ultimately, if you drive a 2011-12 Dodge RAM (or one of their other products with the TIPM problem), you WILL have this issue at some point.....if you own it long enough.BTW, the"NEW" fuel pump I installed works great too (Advance Auto)! I actually got a noticeable increase in pickup speed (off the line) with this new pump installed.......which tells me that my old fuel pump was getting tired.Thanks for reading.......

This is a life saver my truck wasn’t working properly and I put this in I drive it all the time now

A sheet of instruction would be nice, but it worked as expected and fixed the fuel pump relay issue.

I’ll start by saying I am a single mother. My van broke down and I was determined to not put it in the shop. Did a little research and found out my Tipm went bad and this was the fix. $10 fix vs $1,000+ and being without a vehicle for days while in the shop. I’ve put maybe 4,000-5,000 miles on it since the repair with no issues…even better, I fixed it myself in 2 minutes! It’s that easy y’all!

Got this cheap cable to bypass the fuel pump relay on a 2012 Chrysler Town & Country with 143k miles on it. We had start issues for a while, and when i plugged in this cable, it fired up immediately, indicating a faulty fuel pump relay.Note(!!!) This is not a permanent fix, it can leave your fuel pump running even when the engine isn't running, draining your battery, and it can cause fire hazards. The permanent fix is to solder on an external fuel pump relay, or get the little circuit board device from Vertical Visions that fits right into your TIPM.But it works great for figuring out if it's the pump relay or the pump itself. Just don't use it as a permanent fix.

I would highly recommend trying this before spending money on replacing your TIMP.

I bought this for the day that would have come, which it did, and it’s only then I realized that this is mini fuses. Not micro, as needed for my Ram. So this purchase is useless
