95 530i Engine will crank, but not start
I stepped into my car this morning and it would not start. The check engine light had been on for awhile but I have been putting off diagnosing it. I performed the stomp test, and code 1231 was returned. (Oxygen 2 sensor lean/rich control stop) I believe it is not related.
I then consulted Bentley to orient myself with the standard electrical tests.
I started by checking the fuel pump. The pump is receiving about 10 volts at the connector in the truck.
However I do not hear it running. How loud is it supposed to be? My ear is about 6 inches away from the pump when someone cranks the car.

After this reboot the computer and see if it stars if you have pressure, if not we can troubleshoot farther.
Will do. I will check it first thing tomorrow. Thanks for the help.
