Fuel pump doesn't run when the ignition is turned on or cranking. Checked pump with 12-volt source it runs. Checked relay it's good. No spark, the plugs and wires are good, coils will fire. I have replaced the crank sensor.

Hi,

I looked through schematics and noted that the systems get power from the main relay behind the center of the dash. Also, the ECM relay fuse should be checked as well.

If you look below, I attached the portion of the schematic where I got the info. Start with the fuse. If it is good, confirm there is power to and from it.

Let me know what you find. Also, let me know if you have checked for diagnostic trouble codes.

Take care,

Joe

See pics below Pic 2 shows the fuse in the under-hood fuse box to check.

I checked the fuse power going in and out. There are no codes on the computer. Having trouble locating the main relay in the dash.

Hi,

The relay is high up in the dash. I attached the only pic I could find remotely relevant. Let me know if it helps.

Take care,

Joe
