Electrical issue?
So I still cant get my car running, starter was just replaced, spark plugs, plug wires, and a new fuel pump and it still wont run, I figured that the fuel pump isnt engaging so Im left to think its an electrical issue, I looked at the fuses under the dash and they all look fine except theres a spot where it says ign (ignition?) and ther isnt a fuse there? am I stupid or am I missing something? I also was told it could be the ignition control module whatever that is.

Re: Electrical issue?
Does the car crank when you try to start it?
I'm assuming you have a FI pump. Does it do the 2 second prime when you turn the key on?
Have you checked the fuel pump relay?

Using a voltmeter or test light (the type for testing for voltage, not a continuity tester) see if you have power on pin A of the pump relay orange wire.
(It doesn’t matter what position the key is in.)
If you don’t have power there check the inline fuse located NEAR THE BATTERY.
If there is power there, jump pin A to pin Egray wire. for a second or two with a piece of wire.
Does the pump run when you do that?
