Intercooler pump replaced and still not working

Well my intercooler pump went **** up so I ordered a new one. Car has 100k on it so it did it's time. Well I put the new one in and the new one won't work either. So I tried to check the fuse but I can't really find it. I'm thinking its the one labeled IP ING and is a 20a fuse? That fuse is fine and the pumps plug seems to be properly plugged in. I cannot find where it's grounded to but I read on here it's near the alternator...

Any idea what could be causing the new pump to not work? Also is the fuse labelled IP ING for the intercooler pump?? I want to make sure it's actually the pump that's faulty before I phone the vendor I bought it from and try to get them to exchange it.

Ip ign stands for ip ignition so thats bot the fuse..... Make sure its fully connected and go from there. How do u know its not working? Put 12v to it and ground it to see if it turns and ect if so pump is good then let the car run and check voltage from the hot wire in the harness to the pump and also the checck the ohms in both ground and hot wires when car is off

I pulled and checked every fuse under the hood. Everything looks good on that end. I still don't see intercooler pump or anything that would describe the intercooler pump on the fuse box cover tho. I've looked like 5 times now I must be going blind if it's listed on there. I'm going to try the first suggestion tomorrow after work. Hopefully that sorts my problems out

iirc its marked "aftercooler". also there is a relay for it, you can try swapping that with another relay to see if it works. keep in mind the car has to be running.

They key only has to be in the ON position for they pump to come on. That's what I do at at strip, flip my key on and let it cool down after runs, and that's how ZZP blew my system of air.

I connected it to the battery and a ground and the pump worked. So I'm kind of happy that I don't need to return it. I swapped the relays with another source and the aftercooler fuse is still intact. I guess i now need to pick up a voltmeter to see if it's getting power..

My guess would be that it's not getting power. Turn the key on, and use a volt meter.

That's actually something u can set up when u get tuned through hp tuners or trifecta. it's a great option if u go to the track a lot.
