Default fuel pump not kicking on

just swapped my new dohc zc into my crx
not getting fuel to engine, not hearing the buzz frm the fuel pump.

relay clicks, also tested w/ my bros wrking relay still no fuel pump buzz.
i am getting spark. ima try hard wiring it in the morn. if its not wrking gonna replace the pump. my question is if it does start when i hardwire it, what could keep it from kicking in if it's not the main relay???

also i am getting spark so i'm pretty sure it's isolated from somewhere after the main relay

did you change any of the wiring during the swap? for example did you have to convert from dpfi - mpfi or did you do an obd0 - obd1 conversion or anything like that?

yeah that would be a pretty straight forward swap, lol. i'll see if I can't come up with something tomorrow. getting kinda late and doing the whole head nod thing about to pass out here at the computer. maybe by then you will have tested the fuel pump by then and will either have found out the problem or at least eliminated another possibility, lol.
