I believe the fuse is up near the battery on my IROC, might be there on yours as well.

Is the relay working? If not, you'll need to check wiring back to the ECM...if okay, I'd suspect ECM is not firing the relay.

Do a search, you'll find the schematics posted, verify you have power to the coils of the relay when the key is on...this will only last for about 2 seconds...so either pu the meter where it's viewable, or have a friend turn the key.

Glad you got it fixed, Gabe! I had a similar problem; the ring terminal for the fuel pump fuse, at the positive junction block, on the passenger side of the radiator support, was the cause of my headache. The wire corroded and became intermittant.
