Turn keyswitch to On and listen carefully for fuel pump to come on, run 3 secs, and go off.

If you're sure you don't hear this sound, next step is to check fuel pump power wire in rear trunk area for power (remember it will only be hot for 2 secs, then off so you'll need help). Fuel pump power is blk/yel wire on 5 pin connector.

If power is available for 3 secs, fuel pump or fuel pump ground fault is likely. Check for good ground on same fuel pump connector. If good, then fuel pump is problem.

If power not available at pump, Main Fuel Relay is likely fault. Under dash on driver's side, left of steering wheel. It can be tricky to access. Best bet is to separate the relay inner workings from the outer shell that is mounted on a stab post. It may be difficult!

good luck
