Helllo. I have a 2000 Dodge Stratus. The car wont start. It starts on ether and has no fuel pressure at the rail. Fuses are good and swapped the relay with no luck. Is there anyway to test the fuel pump to see if its working? I found the connector to the furl pump in the trunk, but there are 7 wires on the plug so im not sure which wires to check for power. I was also going to try and send power to the fuel pump manually to see if the car would start but im not sure which wires to power. Any idea how to check if its the fuel pump?
Thank you for the help!
Jon

Jon:
Rather than taking power to it, which can be dangerous, use a test light and see if there is power to the pump. If there is power to it and it still doesn't run, replace the pump.

I am trying to do that but I am not sure which wires I should be checking for power. There are 7 wires on the connector and I am not sure which wires I should check for.
Thanks Jon

Using a test light, probe each one to see if any supply power. If I'm correct, there is a green and white wire in that harness that supplies power to the fuel pump motor. Dark blue is the level sensor. Black and a black and LT green are grounds. The other wires are for the leak pump.
