Fuel pump or relay ..... or maybe some thing other?
just make sure the actual ground from the fuel pump to the chassis under the car is securely bolted first. If that's come loose, your test will light the light, but a new pump will still not work. A continuity check from the pump harness to chassis should confirm this. Also, good to make sure the fuel pump harness is still connected and the wires aren't rat chewed.
Excellent point on the grounding. I've had mice or maybe it was a rat, eat wiring on my '77 pickup between the tail lights and behind the tailgate. Had one eat fuel line vapor line on my '07, and bite a hole in the high-pressure supply line, and chew on wires to the FPDM.
Well, was the fuel pump. I got it done and she starts great. My hands hurt, I'm tired, I got cold, and hungry. Unplugging those plugs in blind spots with limited room, and snaking that pump out over the rear axle was not near as easy as videos make it look, tomorrow I'll add a zip tie to keep the three wire pressure sensor plug plugged in, for some reason it's not "clicking".
Was up into the morning hours last night doing taxes, but they are done too.
Thanks all.
No ... I'm not arguing with you ... I'm just explaining why I'm right ...
Now go ... and whatever you do ... have a safe trip!
