I recently changed my fuel pump because my van broke down on the side of the highway. I was always able to hear the fuel pump start once the key was turned on and I could no longer hear it. I assumed it was the fuel pump. Once changed I still could not hear nor start my vehicle. I was wondering if there could be a problem with my wiring. If so, do you have a diagram or an answer to help me figure this out?

I would start off by checking the fuel pump relay which is located in the underhood fuse/relay box.

Connect a test light between fuel pump test terminal and ground turn the ignition on the light should illuminate for 2 seconds then go out, if not check the relay.

Also check the fuel pump fuse. If htose are both good check for a short in the fuel pum wiring harness.

When a fuel pump goes out it can do so one of two ways either it can quit and stop working or it can fail intermittently causing the engine to stall or not start.
