740 fusebox problems

okay, I had a problem the other day with the car stalling, found out it was the connectors from the switch I had put in so I could manually control the fuel pump relay, they was gettin hot... well, the car was turnin on fine, until I decided to eliminate it, the FPR clicks on when I turn the motor, I still dont hear my fuel pump turnin on, it was fine, now I took the fuse 11 harness apart to see if it was gettin contact with the wires, it is, but theres still no juice runnin through it, dont know what I should do, finally diagnosed the problem, n in comes this...wtf...what is before or after this that I should test or look for? if I got my fuel pump to turn on this car would start...I'm stumped...anyway I could bypass it? obviously gonna have to run a fuse for #11 outside the box cuz I kind of destroyed the inlet for it... thats not a problem, how do I get my fuel pump on?:eek:

fuel pump?
 
for sum weird reason I'm not gettin any current to my #11 fuse, the pink wire that goes from my FPR to the acutal fuse is not sending any juice, ogot the multimeter between the the two connecting ends and nothing... so I put a long wire from the pink wire in the truck to the top of my FPR n I could hear the pump whirr but when I crank to start doin the same thing, it dont start....dont know if I'm harming my cars components by doin that, but I'm at wits end, I have all the diagrams except for the actual wiring of the fuse box... I even switched around my noise suppr. relay..whats next... this car started fine yesterday... switched one thing and everything goes to $h!t....:confused:....(a bit later)....I found out why I was gettin no fuel pump action, the FPR is so shot that even when I stick what I used to stick in it (a fuse) it wont work, but anyways, add that to a list of things I'm buyin this week along with a 89 740 for $600...new tires, shocks, exhaust, same regina engine and tranny, body and grill are intact.... just need the extra parts for now....well goodluck to me....hope it all works out

got it on....woo hoo..
 
well I jumped on the car today, charged the battery.. no start... I know my FPR is shot so I have it jumped....I remembered that I switched my noise suppr. relay the other day when I was messin with it, well guess what, one of them are shot, it started right up... so I need 2 relays, found a FPR for $24... now Im gonna start lookin for a NSR....thought it was sumthin major people... didnt even want to touch this car yesterday...I was pissed n dissapointed with my 740... we've been through alot since i've had her, I thought the days of her leavin me on the side of the road with my family was over... but now I know why shes been acting weird...thanx everybody for the input... mind over machine....:cool:
