Default dead 95 coupe/LS swap - fuel pump won't run

hello got a quick question for anyone. i got a 95 coupe with a 92 ls in it that is decked shaved crower cams built head. ran great then the other day fuel pump stopped working. changed fuel pump fuel pump relay and checked all wires. seems fine. fuel pump will not kick on when you turn the key all the way on. will turn on if i disconnect the relay and jump prong 5 and 7 on the plug. but car will not start. please offer some advice or assistance.

The car turns on if you jump pins 5 to 7? The way you worded that kinda making me think twice.

Does the fuel pump run if you jump 1 to 7 in the main relay connector?

Is there spark at the plugs?

Is the ground wire attached to the thermostat housing clean and tight?

Do you have a multimeter?

I had that problem on a 93 del sol si. I even replaced the ignition switch. Turns out it was the ECU. Try another ECU to see if the fuel pump will prime and the car will start. My old ECU appeared to get wet. The ECU cover was oxidized from moisture. I think any other P28 ECU (s/b manual or auto correct application ) will prime the fuel pump
