does the cel go away when you turn off the ignition or is it a solid cel?

Is the ecu chipped? That's going to be the only reason, for it was chipped incorrectly, or the ECU itself is just bad.

also once the car starts the cel will go out. the cel is only on when you first try to start it and it wont after a few trys ( takes a few min) it will start and the cel goes out.

I know that if you pull the fuse for the fuel pump you will get a solid light.

So maybe you have a blown fuse.
