My first guess would be fuel pump relay or its contacts where it plugs in.
Second would be the enertia (sp) switch in the passenger side footwell.

it was the fuse box in the cab that i had problems with but the relays were fine under the hood i did the whole wiggle test to the harnes after i fixed it and it passed with flying colors i was just wondering if the ac controls at all short out the fuel pump or the pump just went out at the time i was workin on my ac?

You may have to take off the bed to test the fuel pimp for power if everything else checks out
