unplug the fuel pump relay " then turn the key till you see the dash lights then go test the pump relay socket with a meter or a test light " if nothing " then it could be between the back of the ignition/key switch' and the pump relay .....also check that all ground wires are clean and tight and check behind the fuze block for corrosion or dis conected wires....i hope this helps ..."good luck"
