Electrical problem
1997 Mazda 626 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual 180K miles

I have a 97 626 that will not start after the alternator seized, the car was running fine till now, the new alternator is installed and every thing works but we have no fuel pump activation, all fuses are good, the fuel pump runs when jumped at the data link and we have injector activation at crank, everything else works on the car just not activating the fuel pump
