no electricity to fuel pump...

[Johnny Fort]

Hey guys, haven't been around here in way too long.

What brings me back is a problem I've had with my car. About two months ago I tried to jump my car just like I have many times over the past eight years. I hooked it up to my Maxima and a wire that runs from the post that the positive battery connects to, started on fire. I pulled the jumper cables off, replaced the roasted wire, bought a new battery and tried again. Now I am getting no power to the fuel pump. The engine turns over fine, but the buzz from the pump that I normally hear when I put the keys in the ignition is gone. What did I do? I am considering having it towed to Firestone so they can do a dianostic check on it. The car stills runs spetacularly, so its a waste just sitting in the garage. Plus, its getting warm out here!
