Exactly right, a hall problem won't stop the fuel pump from cycling on
for 1-2 seconds EVERY time the key is turned on. Look at the ECU or the
power feed to the ECU. I have seen and fixed numerous intermittent and
solidly dead waterboxer vans by finding a bad wire that kills power to
the ECU. Often one right at the alternator main wiring stud. There are
just a few wires that can do this. If you have access to a spare ECU try
it. IMHO everyone who travels in a wbx van should have a known good,
tested in their own van spare ECU along for the ride. There are so many
floating around now that a used one can be found for under $100 unless
you wait until you have to have one quick. It is not that they fail very
often, just that you can swap one in in 2 minutes and then move on to
finding the real problem, or just to keep a shop from ordering an
expensive part you can't return.
