I bought a 2000 dodge ram on the 5-30 and 4 days later I was driving to work, and the truck just quit on me. It hasnt started since. I have replaced the fuel pump, the battery, and looked high and low for a so called cut out switch. Then today I was told that dodge does not use a cut out switch for the fuel pump. My question is if it is not the fuel pump, what is it? The truck was driving just fine, it was not sluggish, no noises, nothing noticeable before this happened. However, after it quit on me, I noticed that my fuel gauge stopped working. It doesnt register at all. All my other electrical settings work, the truck is getting fire, via spark plug, battery etc. I found out that this truck does not have a module in the distributor, so what can it be? Someone told me that there is a relay for the fuel pump, if so where is it located, I already took a relay labeled fuel system to auto zone and they were unable to order this relay from their vendor said it is no longer available. I changed the relay out with another relay fuse with the same type of prongs and that was not the problem. The customer rep at the auto parts store said to look for the cut out switch and reset it and this may be my problem. Can you please advise me. I am at wits end and not sure what to fix next. Should I just give up and call it a lemon and cut my losses?
