Motor home will not start. Checked the fuses, they are working.
Checked fuel pump relay
Check fuel filter
Could the pump be dirty and need changed?
I have been a mechanic for 30 years but this problem I can't solve.

If you have a fuel pressure gage, hook it to the check port.

Thank you for your help. Nothing has worked. Time to put in a new fuel pump. There are 20 gallons of gas in the tank. Not going to be a easy job but the only way we can be on the road to FL.

If you do not have power at the inertia switch I am not sure a new fuel pump will fix. There is always a chance though. Just let us know if you need further help.
