I parked my car 1 night went out to start it the next day and noticed it showed no gas in it. I added 3 gals of gas and still showed nothing. I went to replace the fuel pump and none of the four wires were connected. I have tested the 4 wires and only the blue one has any power to it. All fuses seem to be fine.
My question is where does the wires run from when they leave the fuel pump. I am really lost here.

The wires are in a terminal connector right? and it plugs into a connector that goes to pump/sender right? How did it get uncoupled?
The blue wire is the power feed from relay the black wire is ground G200 left kick panel. The green and bk/Y are for gas gague sender. If you have power on blue and ground on blk pump should run.

It got unhooked by me. I have no idea how the wires got broke or chewed or what ever happend to them. I have tried to splice in wires to make it work and can not get the pump to work. The only wire that shows anything is the blue wire the gas gauge works now but nothing else does

Ok I have tried everything. I even got a new pug in that goes to the fuel pump. I have tried putting the grounds to the body and still the same thing. The fuel gauge works but not the pump. Any ideas?

Hi did you put a new pump in?
If there is power to pump and ground it should run. Rig up a power wire place it to pump and ground if it don't run then pump is bad.
