What relay run the fuel pump. is there an fuse under the dash that controls any of the fuel system
Check the inertia switch and reset it. It is usually located on the passenger side under kick plate, under glovebox area, under the carpeting also.

There is a Fuel Pump relay. Not sure if Ford has a Relay Box under the Hood though. There are also Fuses that Control some items of the Fuel System. Try the Relays first and see what you have.
The Best and Easiest way is to Locate a Relay that you Know is OK, Like those things are Working and swap it Around. What Usually do though is go and get a Couple of Extra Relays and keep them in my Shop. You can take them out one at a Time that way and just use the New ones until you find the Bad ones. They just cost a Couple of Bucks each.
They do get a Little warm. This is a Trial and Error Process so, Give it a Shot and let me know what you get so if we need to we can keep going.
No Problem! The Wires are Very Hard to trace I know. Have you tried to find a Haynes or Chilton Repair book for your Truck? They give exploded views of a lot of these things and could help you a lot with this.
There should not be Much Difference in the Models. Try it and see how much is not Relavent to your Truck.
Did the Chilton Book not help in Locating the Route of these Wires?
It is not Easy Either Way to Trace these Wires But, The Diagrams should show you where they Stop and Start. The only thing that I can tell you is to Try and Find where they Lead to By the Diagram Again and See if there is not a Short Between them. It's REALLY Hard to do when I am not there to see them.

how do you test the relays
all of the relays execpt one get warm. is that normal and are all the relays the same and if that is normal would the one that dont get warm be the bad relay
Still no power to fuel pump after changing relays. Fuel pump looks new don't know what to try next. Tried tracing wires but can't keep track of all of them because of the wire looms. Where does the power start at maybe I could start from there. Thanks for all your help!
She gave me a Chilton repair manual but it is for a 1988 maybe I should get one for 1987
Tried to figure out where the power starts at for fuel pumps but loose wire when they go to the cab
Not alot. It does show alot of wire diagrams
no power to my 87 ford ranger fuel pump
