Did you check the fuel pump fuse inside also?
Does it have the 2 second fuel pump run when you just turn the key on?

The fuel pump will only run for 2-3 seconds when you first turn the key on if the computer doesn't know the
engine is turning, is a saftey feature in case of wreck.
If you'd like you can call me at 567-204-2062.

Re: ? on a 99 ford expoler
I am going to check all the grounds on it think it might have a loose ground some where or the computer not sending signal to the relay ground. Going to check on it some more tomorrow as I don't like working on sundays unless I realy have to and my volt tester is at work all I got here is my test light.It belong to the Paster at the church in front of my house so he understands that I don't like working on sundays as it is a day for rest and church for me to.But thanks for the number if I don't figure it out I will give you a call .I put it out last night on the chat and that all we realy came up with is the ground, and if I understood right the computer sends ground to the relay and if the ground to the computer is not making a good ground it want work or the computer went out.But when I check the old pump it wouldn't work the new pump did before I installed it and I made sure when I installed it I didn't knock and wires loose.That is one thing I hate about these newer one to many wires and electronics and don't seam to get any better gas milage than some of the old carbed did.But if I get it figured out I will post it for other to see.

Guys it was the key it had anti theft on it the and key went out it has a chip in it .My Dad had a chevy astro van do him that way he found out the problem after he sold the van but it would crank up but run like crap. So if you have anti theft and it quites running try the other key before doing anything it could be the chip in the key went out .The chip is in the top of the key on them and not like a gm you can see the chip in them.Who would ever thought of a key going out A lession learned maybe this will help others

I have to say for the record I didn't find it he had it towed to town and they found it I realy didn't have much time after work to work on it and he needed it back so it didn't hurt my feeling.
