Default 96 civic fuel pump priming on/off

im having trouble with my civic.. the fuel pump primes on and off.. sometimes it will prime right away sometimes take 2 minutes or more.
When I turn the key on the check engine light stays on until the pump primes however long that is. I already swapped out the main relay with a new one and same thing happened so I put the old one in.
I found some cut wires coming from my ignition switch? anyone know what they are for?
got 3 pics.. see of they load

Stock 96 Civic? Any mods?

The ECU may be going bad.

Also try replacing fuses 44 and 13, as well as cleaning/tightening the G101 ground on the thermostat housing.

Some electrical tests could also be done, if you're able and willing.
