Hello all, I am new here and hoping to find some help. I have a 96 Camry LE 2.2l. the fuel pump will not engage when turning the key to the on position but does when attempting to start. Any ideas? Thanks in advance Adam

Welcome to the nation, Adam! I'll move your thread over to the appropriate Camry forum so the members there can help you out, but you should also use that forum's search feature to locate any past threads that may deal with your fuel pump issue.

When the ignition key is turned to the ON position, you may be able to hear the PCM turn the fuel pump on briefly. For safety reasons, the PCM will turn the pump off again in a few seconds if the engine doesn’t start. When the ignition key is moved to the START position and back to ON, the PCM relies on the crank position sensor to determine whether the engine is running.
