I have a 2002 6 cyl 4wd that I am having an issue with. It has sat in the garage for quite a while without being started. Had to replace rear springs and shocks and it just took a looong time to get to it and finish. Battery was dead, tried to recharge, but it was shot. Replaced battery, but it won't start. Cranks, but no fuel pressure. I have checked fuses, relay, inertia switch, etc. The weird thing is I get no power at the relay terminal. Shouldn't that terminal have power all the time? Is there something I am missing? Would a PCM problem keep power from getting to the hot side of the fuel pump relay? I am pulling my hair out (and I don't have that much to spare!)
 






Does the anti theft light on the dash blink rapidly or slow when cranking?
 






Hmm. I'll need to connect everything back up and try, but I think it just goes out when cranking and doesn't flash at all.
 






no theft flashing

The theft light seems to be normal, comes on solid for 4-6 seconds when the ket is turned to run position and then goes out. This is really driving me crazy. I hate to just throw $ at it and tow it to a dealer, but I want to get it running!
