At the engine compartment Fusible Box, Check: With a Test Lamp Fuel pump relay operation at terminal pin 87: To Energize up the Fuel pump relay: Remove relay from vehicle, Use a RED 3-alligator clips jumper wire between Positive Battery Terminal and relay terminal pin 30 and terminal pin 86. Use a Black 2-alligator clips jumper wire between NEG Battery Terminal and relay terminal pin 85. Now with the Test Lamp connected as well at NEG Battery Terminal check for current (power) at pin 87. If Test Lamp light does not come ON replace relay. This answer is based in own experience. Thanks
