Default 89 Dodge Dakota 3.9 Throttle Body Injection......

On a 89 Dodge Dakota 3.9 Throttle body injection do they have a "Relay" Or a "fusilbe" Link or is it a problem area?

The fuel pump is good but it is not getting voltage to it.

Any help would be great.

In the pre-1992 dakotas, there wasn't a fuel pump relay. The fuel pump just got its juice from the automatic shutdown (ASD) relay. How, you might ask, do you know if your aSD realy is good? Well, check to see if its getting spark, because the ignition coil is feed thru the ASD.
With that being said, I believe somewheres on the back, driver side of the frame (behind the rear axle I believe) there is a connector. The positive wire for the pump should be the dark green and black wire. The negative wire for the pump should be the gray wire.
