Nate, the fuel pump relay is in the CCRM module. It's probably sticking smack it a few times with a screwdriver handle.

Test for power out of that before you drop the tank. I hope you have a good service manual. I have a good test light/logic probe you can use.

Try unplugging the fuel cutoff switch....plug back in push and red button down. My brother's car wouldn't start and that's what I did and it worked.

Good Luck

I heard if the car has lost communication with the key. You can turn the key to the ON position and let it sit for about 10 or 15 mins and the computer will relearn the key code. Don't start the car just turn the key to the ON postion. Let me know if this works:bigthumb
