So last week something happened that I've never had happen before. I was dropping my daughter off at school and I noticed that my dash lights weren't on. My headlights still worked and the blinkers did to.

When I got home and parked it, I checked out all the fuses. There was a 20 amp fuse that was blown, so I replaced it and then checked the relays under the hood. I turned on the key to check the dash lights and they still didn't work. The 20 amp fuse blew again, so I replaced it again. Now the dash lights work again.

However, when I tried to start it, it would turn over, but the fuel pump isn't turning on.

Long story short, I've replaced all 4 relays under the hood, installed a new fuel pump and also replaced some bulbs in my taillights and sides over the front tires. It turns over when I try to start it, but the fuel pump still isn't "kicking" on and it won't start. I feel like somehow, power isn't getting to the fuel pump.

Does anybody have any ideas on what I could check next? I'm all out of ideas.

Thanks.

What fuse blew ????

That's important information to know.

You check your domelight fuse? Also, remove the relay and check for 12v at #30. If not, sounds like you have a short somewhere.

The fuse that blew was the "park/taillight" 20 amp.

Have you checked to see if it is throwing any codes? May point you in the right direction.

The fuse that blew was the "park/taillight" 20 amp.

that has to be a coincidence. That blowing wouldn't stop your fuel pump. Mine would blow everytime I ran a trailer and used the brakes and turn signals. Jeep still runs. Was it running before you switched all the relays? Maybe switch them back?

I think it was a coincidence too. It was running fine until I parked it. All four relays have been replaced and are new. The fuel pumps not engaging when the key is turned on. I'll have to check the codes.
