a very weird problem electrical

its very hard to explain nothing works but the lights and the interor lights except when i jump a wire from the fog light fuse spot to pretty much any other fuse on the fuse box then the dash lights work and i can get it to turn over but i dont hear the fuel pump kick on i replaced the ing switch and the starter

Re: a very weird problem electrical

ive done that they all seem pretty solid ... a few people have told me it can be a relay or possibly where you put the key in iv also have been told it could be the fuse box itself im not sure im not that good with electrical
