It would also leave me uncomfortable if the tech came back with as quick diagnosis as he did. However, I'm no mechanic; I just play one on TV.

PS - I just checked over at Renntech. For fuel pump relay output stage, short to B+, the listed P-code is P1124, fault code 167, fault type 4. For P1502, Throttle jacking unit, spring test.

Throttle jacking unit!
hmmm....I wonder if I was looking at the codes for the 996..
are they different?
