2001 Windstar gets no power to pump newpump check Ed all relays and check fuel pump reset runs fine with hot wire from battery to pump

Yes components areworn n gittnhot..20yr car. Provbly need newpump..or fuel regulator etc. Buy ahaynes shopbook.The car wiringharness cud hav issues tu. Umay need an independentshop w oldsch mechs

Have you checked your fuel shut off valve. It is behind the taillight on the passenger side, open the door where the jack is and look toward the back of the taillight. Should be a black box with a red button on top, if its tripped then all you have to do is push it down you will hear it click and the button will stay down. I try to locate you a wiring diagram. Good luck

Have you checked the fuel pump relay to see if it is sending power to the pump ? The computer grounds the relay when the computer "sees" oil pressure or engine RPM.

Check the power feed for the pump at the fuel pump relay. Pull the relay out, and with a test light clipped to a ground, probe all the terminals that the relay plugs in to. One terminal should be hot at all times. If no terminal has power, either a fusible link off the battery has failed or a maxi fuse has blown-check a wiring diagram to see how the relay gets power to it.
If the relay has power to it, check the other relay terminals with the engine cranking. When cranking the engine, two terminals should have power-the fuel pump feed, and the signal from computer to activate the relay. If both signals are present, check the pump wire from relay to tank, check the fuel pump ground, and check if the coil side of relay has a good ground-signal from computer goes to coil input side, the coil output terminal should go to ground.
Good luck. Post back with what you find.

check for fuel pump fuse.

check the connections at the top of fuel tank. If the pump starts clean the connections and put back on.
There is a relay that controls the pump. check connection to relay.
in wire harness there are 2 large contacts that can be jumped
to force the fuel pump to operate. be careful to only jump the big ones.

Apparently the relay is not being turned on. I believe that signal would come from the engine computer. Does your check engine light come on when you turn the key to on? If it does, the computer is powered up-if no check engine light, either the bulb has burnt out or the computer has no power-check for a bad fuse.
Put your finger on the fuel pump relay and have someone turn the key to on. Do you feel the relay tick? If you do, check if the relay has one hot wire with key off-use a voltmeter or a testlight. If you do have a hot wire at relay., check fuel pump wiring from relay to the pump. Pull off the connector at the pump and replug it back in.
If you can't find a powered wire at the relay with key off, maybe it is only hot when key is on, so turn key on and check relay again for that power wire going to the relay, one wire should have constant power there. If not, there is a wiring problem between the battery and the relay. If the relay has power to it, but you felt no pulse when turning the key to on, likely the relay is not getting a signal to turn on. A shop would need to investigate that.
Well, good luck, hope you find the problem.

There is a red and white wire feeding the fuel pump relay from a 30 amp fuse. Both the shutdown relay and the fuel pump relay are grounded by the PCM, so if the fuel pump relay is grounded it should be "on" and providing a direct link from the pump to that fuse.
You should have battery voltage on that 30 amp wire before the relay and then on the dark green and black wire going to the pump.
If you don't have battery voltage coming from the 30 amp fuse, the problem could be before the fuse.
That 30 amp fuse is hot all the time, so it is powered by a fuseable link coming off the battery.

yes it could be your fuel pump also it could your spark need check first for blown fuses and relays make sure you have power going to your pump also check if you have security system or shot off switch for pump for emergency if off reset/

first check the fuse if it is good then check for power at the relay

theres prolly 3 to 6 relays and fuses both under the hood and dash
