Default Weird electrical problem...main relay, no fuel pump??

started out as a bad dizzy, put my friends on and still didnt start..played around with it more and started to get no response (not turning over)..tapped the starter a few times and still nothing..i removed my kill switch and it started to crank but not turn over (fuel pump is not turning on) checked all grounds, their ok..changed the main relay numerous times with new ones, didnt work..i looked down at the main relay wires and one of them is melted/fried (yellow with black stripe)..what could this be?...the fuel pump will not turn on?? any help is appreciated, thanks guys

starter is fine, dizzy is fine, main relay is fine, grounds look ok, fuel pump is fine also, changed it

i had a problem like this. and my ecu was bad./ no fuel pressure. check your fuel pump for power. test your main relay for power. I had power at my pump, but the ecu wasnt switching over the ground i guess.... on a 98hatchw/ b18c swap

what kinda of car? set up are you running? still wondering that. Ecu flickering? as in clickin sounds? are you sure your not hearing the main relay behind the glove box. click click, key in position 2 means relay is ok, but click click click all the time.. you fried somthing, or maybe crossed power. have you been repinning your harness for any reason>? or changed any sensors/rewired. might check your engine grounds, should have a trans ground, ground at thermotat housing, and valve cover ground (that one dosent do **** like ur having problems with though)

if you have wires that were fried from your main relay, you might have cooked the z splices in your body harness. peel back the tape on your wires near your ecu and make sure nothings melted together there, and have you tryed another ecu>? might have melted somthing inside there.
