Recently car wouldn't start. Culprit was the intank fuel pump. The part that was replaced had charred wires and connector housing. Anyone else out there ever see this?

I have changed a couple of fuel pumps and the wires do come out discolored but I never heard or seen of charring which implies overheating of the connector and or wiring. I think you replaced what had to br replaced did'nt you?

Pump was changed because car failed to start. Troubleshoooting indicated that there was no fuel getting to the engine. Thus, the fuel pump was found to be the defective part. There is one wire that either was hot enough to melt solder, or was never attached properly.
