Hello, my car cranks but no start. I changed fuel pump and started, but now car cranks and no start again and there is no power to fuel pump or fuel pump relay. Fuses are good.

Let's do two things. First check for codes. If you have a code for something else that shares a power source that the fuel pump relay does then that will explain things a little more.

Next which wire have you checked for power at the relay? If you have it on the red/violet wire from the fuse then we have a relay issue. However, we need to test each of these wires while the key is on and see which has power and which does not.

Haha. Just goes to show, we always check the basics first. Thanks for the update. Glad you got it resolved.
