Best Answer

Check the fuse located in the fuse block. Use a multimeter to confirm that electricity is present at the fuse location. The fuel pump only runs when the ignition key is turned to the on position. Turn the key to the on position without starting the car. Have somebody near the gas tank listen for the wirring noise of the fuel pump. Check the pump electrical connections at the fuel tank with a multimeter with the ignition key turned to the on position. A fuel pump needs electricity to run.
