Truck just quit on me driving down the road gas tank is full. Checked all fuses and relays are good but fuel pump is bad. I replaced fuel pump and it still won't come on replaced the fuses and relays with new ones still nothing. Not sure what to check next.

So you checked the actual fuel pressure and it reads 0psi?Thats how you know the fuel pump isnt working?Lets start with this go to the fuel pump fuse and see if there is power to both sides of the fuse while you are cranking the engine. Let me know what you find.

The ecm B fuse should have power all the time then go to the connector at the fuel pump module unplug it. Then terminal C black wire should have 2ohms or less to ground. Then terminal B gray wire should have battery voltage while cranking. Also inspect the terminal ends make sure there not open. Let me know what you find.
