New member...Not getting power to fuel pump--87 2.9l

Hey guys, I am rebuilding an 87 Ranger with the 2.9l. I finally got to the point where i can start the thing...it turns over nice but the fuel pump/pumps do not turn on?

I already replaced the fuel pump relay
Their is no power getting to the pump so i pulled apart the connection from the chassis to the main harness that runs down the frame and only 2 of the 12 or so leads are getting power.

Is there a fuse or other relay i might be missing??

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

I'm not sure if the fuel pump cutoff switch in the cab totally cuts power to the pump or not, but it seems like it would. Look under the dash in the center or the passenger side for a resetable switch.

thanks, I found that (inertia switch) and pushed it but it didn't fix the problem.

Any other ideas?

That's all I got.. Sorry. It looks like you'll have to trace those wires back with a voltmeter.
