Scenic 1 fuel pump relay?

Post by mpdevice »

Hi!
Just a bout to scrap my old scenic which has a considerable amount of petrol left that I wanted to pump out.
Anybody has a wing diagram of the fuse box or wherever I can tap in to hotwiring the fuel pump?
There are no legends on the fuse box in the engine compartment.
Vehicle is a 99/2000 petrol 1.6 16V.

Thaaank you!

Mike

That'll take a long time, I usually poke a hole in the fuel tank and let it drain into a container when faced with that problem.

I think you could lift the rear seats & there should be an access panel to the top of the tank, should be able to hotwire the pump from under there but as said it may be quicker to pop a hole in the tank. (I know why you'd like to use the pump though, easier to stop flow when one can is full!)
