Rat infested Camaro Nightmare

I posted this on the electronics board, but no response. Anyway, I'm restoring this 89 Camaro 2.8 for my neighbor kid. I unplugged the EST bypass to set the timing. When I did the fuel pump died. Did I burn out the relay? Should I have shut the car down before unplugging it?
