I have a fuel pump open fault. What exactly does that mean?

I think you need a fuel pump

that's the same code i got when i shorted my fuel pump. i replaced it with the msd pump and it worked great.

how much for the msd? it was working fine when I pulled the motor out, I put it back in yesterday and now it is giving me the fault. I did notice gas dripping from somewhere yesterday but I figured it was from when I put the tank on.

where do I get crush washers? By the way, I only get that fault when the motor is running.

Will it hurt if I run it with the fault until I can get new washers to try?

Maybe you have a bypass wiring harness like Haydug and Wrightsman make.Then you would have a fault but pump would still work.If its running I would fix fuel leak and not worry about it.Maybe get a spare MSD pump in case yours does stop working.Remember whenever working on pump wiring to always disconnect the battery.

My Blaze runs fine but will occasionally stall for no apparent reason. Always starts right back up.

I finally hooked it up to a D+M kit. It came back with the Fuel Pump Open Fault.

1) Could this be the cause of my stalling problem? Should I just upgrade my fuel pump to the MDS?

2) I also have the Blackwidow (Ben) harness update on my quad. Now is this the reason that I am getting the Fuel Pump Open fault?

Note: The stalling problem was occuring before and after I added the harness. I bought the harness in hope that it would fix my stalling problem.
