Ok new to this sight. Im having fuel pump issues. So heres my story. I have a 91 dakota 5.2 it shot it run and drives but the motor desperately needs repaced. So i bought a 93 dakota 5.2 that runs and drives perfect but the fram is rotted. I took the engine, tranny all the wiring harnesses inside and out. Every control modgule, every everything and put it in my 91. Everything weent great. Got it all put back together. But, the fuel pump has no power. Ive repaced fuel pump relay, asd relay, and the fuel pump. I've also cut out and repaced the splice. Good power to all 4 wires. Im not the greatest with a multi meter or on how to read schematics. Can someone please help me.

By poer to all 4 i mean the single wire and the 3 it splits into all test positive for power. And yes both the fuel pump relay and the ASD both click when you turn the key to the on position

Are you checking power at the pump connector on top of the tank? That's the only way to know for sure you are getting power. Pull the connector from the fuel pump assembly on top of your tank and with your meter set to VDC check for 12v between the two largest gauge wires...probably a black wire and either red wire or drk green wire. Don't remember off top of my head. But it will be the larger two wires...the small ones are for the fuel sending unit. If you have 12v here then your pump is toast or the wire inside the tank broke. If you don't have 12v then start tracing it back to the asd relay and see where you lose it.

Connector Question
Hi.
Apologies if this isn't the right way to do this, but I'm driving myself around the bend trying to the find connector you're holding in several of your photos in your post. It's the one that connects to the fuel pump to provide power to it. I have hunted high and low on eBay, Amazon and Googled for days, but can't find a replacement one for my 1995 Dodge 2500 van. Could you kindly tell me what it is called and even better, point me in the direction of a supplier?
Any help would be so gratefully received as my truck has been stuck on the drive for over a year now and this issue needs to be fixed once and for all.
Many thanks.

Fuel Pump Connector.
HOWEVER.
It might not be available new anymore; might have to find a compatible vehicle in the boneyard to cut it out of.
Such as say a pickup or van of about the same vintage.
I'd look on car-part.com for someone with the pump assembly, and then chat, email, or call them to see if they can get you the connector also.
