2002 Millenia, 2.5L, Fuel Pump Relay?
 

Hello. Looking for a little assistance please. Vehicle will not start. I have just replace the fuel pump (FP) and fuel filter in the vehicle. I have performed the jumper wire test in the diagnostic plug/port. With the jumper wire in place, I get the FP to pump gas due to the fact that I can hear it flowing through the fuel rails. I can also hear the FP through the access hole in the trunk since I still have it open. The problem...with no jumper wire and car set up as normal, when I turn the key on, my FP does not prime the motor as it should.

Now, the FP relay...my relay is located in the fuse panel under the hood. Not under the cruise control module as I have read in other posts. I pulled the relay, opened it, visual inspection - it looks great. I applied 12V to it. Contact works beautifully. All remaining fuses in both panels have been checked and are good to go.

I am tapped out at the moment for ideas. Anything you all have would be great. Thanks in advance!
