racetronic issue: RESOLVED AND "HOW TO" CONTACT INFORMATION
So a week after I installed my pump it has died. Swapped back to factory harness - nothing.
Direct power to the pump - nothing.
Car has run great, wife got home after driving it to work shut it off and when I went to take it to town - dead.
I sent a pm to the racetronix guy on here. Anyone else know how I can rma - get another pump?

They are going to tell you to email support@racetronix.com to make sure that you troubleshot the pump correctly, and I can almost guarantee they are going to bring up some stuff about not having a "licensed shop" install it. Ask me how I know.

Wow! I just installed a pump kit. No problems, but I had a question about installation (no instructions w/harness) and got no response. Figured it out myself. I think if I get any more of their products I'll use one of their vendors so maybe there will be some cust service. Have you tried talking to one of their vendors for advice?

Old Geezer, why do you keep posting these links when it has been determined that this problem only effects the F20000169 which we do not use in our kits? Fear mongering does not help anybody.

poster made no mention of the part number on the pump that died. The link has that info. I would guess the poster could make his own mind up, if the problem he has, is similar to what the Buick guys are seeing.
If a reference to that link bothers you, so be it.
In the apst, I've purchased your injs, and referred customers to you, for such purchases. However, I'm pretty well fed up w/ your sarcastic bullshit. I'm done.

There is NO sarcasm here. We understand that you are trying to inform the masses of the potential problem with the F20000169 pumps.
Feel free to post this info in other threads but when it comes to Racetronix product it is not related so please refrain from doing so.
It does not help our customers obtain resolution to their problems.
Thank you.

so is there or isn't there a warranty on a pump that was purchased about 8 months ago in the group purchase, installed about 6 months ago, with less than 10k miles. i sent you an email 6 days ago and did not get an answer either way.

You along with 1000's of other customers have success with the product and don't seem to have a problem getting support.
These types of threads pop up from time to time mostly because some customers feel they are more likely to get what they want out of a vendor by painting them in a bad light.
After all no news is news unless it is bad news and shoot to kill then ask questions later.
We will get to the bottom of this problem shortly. The customer's alternate e-mail has worked and we have some diagnostic correspondence going.
