Description
Our TIPM Plug-In Fuel Pump Power Bypass/Test System Lite (US Patent #10,139,450) is a reliable, long-term solution to bypass faulty fuel pump relays on many 2007-2018 Chrysler/Jeep/Dodge/VW vehicles (see vehicle list below).This is the lite version of our TIPM Plug-In Fuel Pump Power Bypass/Test System, offering the same ability to bypass a faulty fuel pump relay at a fraction of the cost. This device can bypass a faulty fuel pump relay to continue driving normally, test your fuel pump relay, and provide LED feedback for the Run/Start signal.
Installation is easy and takes less than 5 minutes.
There is no need to cut harness wires, remove the TIPM, visit your dealer, or reprogram the TIPM.
It comes with a 30 day return policy for a full refund on the part and a 1 year warranty, so there is no risk if you find the fuel pump relay is not the actual problem. Unlike TIPM cables which are
temporary
solutions, this part was designed by our engineers as a patented
long term
alternative to purchasing a new or used TIPM.
If your vehicle fails to start (acts likes it's out of gas) and/or your fuel pump continues pumping after turning the vehicle off (draining your battery), you likely have a faulty fuel pump relay. Fuel pump relays are soldered to one of six circuit boards located deep inside your fuse box (TIPM), so they are very difficult to access and change. Our company, Vertical Visions LLC, is a Maryland small business that is owned and operated by an engineer who specializes in TIPM and fuel pump relay problems since 2014. We also invented the temporary TIPM test/bypass cable in 2014.
Symptoms of Faulty Fuel Pump Relays
TIPM Plug-In Fuel Pump Power Bypass/Test System Lite (Isometric View)
The fuel pump relay, located deep inside the TIPM, is the most common relay to fail since it's powered 100% of the time while you're driving. You likely found us because your dealer wants to change your fuel pump (0+) or TIPM (00+). Symptoms include:
Multiple attempts to start, occurring most often in the morning when the vehicle is cold. The problem gets worse over time and eventually won't start at all.
Unexplained battery drainage due to a relay that is stuck in the closed/on position. You can likely hear the fuel pump running if listening from the rear of the vehicle after it's turned off. Battery drainage may still occur even after a new battery or fuel pump is installed.
The vehicle stalls while driving and you coast to a stop. This situation is sometimes fuel pump relay related.
The vehicle won't start and appears to be out of gas.
30 Day Return Policy
Money back guarantee (return for a full refund, less shipping, within 30 days of receipt if you're not satisfied or it does not solve your problem). We are not like your local dealer where parts that don't solve your issue can't be returned. If you find that our part doesn't solve your issue or your problem is outside the TIPM, simply contact us for a refund.

Shipping
Our goal is to ship your parts as fast as possible. We normally ship the same day if we receive your order in a reasonable amount of time before our FedEx pickup or USPS drop off. If your order arrives late in the day, we'll ship it the next business day. We understand and will accommodate those who need these parts as fast as possible. We have a contract with FedEx for discounted 2-day shipping, so that's likely going to be your best domestic shipping option.
Our shipment schedule is: FedEx - Monday through Friday (pickups at 3pm). If using FedEx and you require a package to be delivered on Saturday, you MUST choose 2-Day Special One Rate (note that FedEx will not deliver to some addresses on Saturday). USPS - Monday through Friday (dropoffs at 3pm).
Estimated shipment durations:
FedEx Priority Overnight: 1 day,
FedEx Standard Overnight: 1 day,
FedEx 2-Day: 2 days,
FedEx International Priority: 1-3 days,
FedEx International Economy: 2-5 days, USPS 1st Class: 4-10 days,
USPS Priority Mail: 2-3 days,
USPS Priority Express Mail: 1-2 days,
USPS Priority International: 6-10 days,
USPS Priority Express International: 3-5 days,
USPS First Class International: 1-2 weeks. Since most carriers have removed their delivery guarantees, we can't guarantee delivery dates.
The shipping duration estimates shown below begin at the time and day the package is shipped by us. Orders received before 12pm ET weekdays will normally be shipped the same day. Orders received after these time periods will likely still ship the same day, but this is not guaranteed.
Packages are delivered:
FedEx - Monday through Friday (Saturday deliveries for most 2-Day Special One Rate shipments only),
USPS - Monday through Saturday
Order confirmation emails are sent minutes after each order is placed. Tracking emails are sent when the order ships. FedEx can't ship to a PO Box or deliver 2-day packages to Puerto Rico, so we'll use USPS Priority Mail in these situations.
Lost Packages
Although rare, USPS and FedEx occasionally delays or loses packages. If your shipment is delayed or lost, please contact us and we'll try to locate your package or ship another part. If you file an Ebay claim due to a lost/delayed package, please be aware that Ebay immediately removes the funds from our account and we won't risk sending you a second part. Communication is key, so contact us through Ebay or call us at 304-933-9391 with any questions or concerns you may have. Ebay will not be able to help you as much as we can, so contact us if you have any problems.
Filing a Claim
Many Ebayers game the system by using our parts for testing purposes, then filing a claim that the part doesn't work. In this situation, Ebay requires us to pay for return shipping and issue a full refund. We obviously don't like this. If our part is indeed faulty, simply contact us and we'll send another one to you. If you have another issue with your vehicle outside the TIPM that our part isn't intended to fix (ie. your starter won't turn the flywheel), then please do not claim that our part is faulty. We will require additional details from every faulty part claim before complying with a return request.
