I replaced the fuel pump recently, and for some reason the car won’t start. The dash doesn’t light up either, not sure if the two are connected. I checked all the fuses and everything checks out to be okay.

Good morning,

Can you hear the pump run when you turn the key on?

Did you check for spark?

These two need to be checked first.
