My car shut off as I was backing out of the drive. Cranks but won't start. Fuel pump not priming. Fuses and relays are good. No power to the fuel pump fuse when I cycle the key. Also the check engine light does not come on at all when I cycle the key. I jumpered at the EEC test to flash codes and nothing happens. Do I have a bad computer?

Good afternoon,

Yes, it could but you need to verify powers and grounds to the ECM.

If you have a voltmeter, you need to test for voltage. I attached the diagram for you to view.

I started to dig into it and found that all the wires in the harness are dry and cracking a lot of the wire are exposed. Also could you tell me what the yellow relay on the passenger strut tower is the wires were burned together?
