I also assume that if you hold your finger on the relays you aren't feeling a click when someone turns the key on and off? If that's the case then, 9 out of 10 times this means either a fuse feeding the PCM is blown or the PCM is no good. There's also a small chance your ignition switch died, but that is rare.

I am getting a click feeling in the relays when the key is turned on

If the relays are clicking but there's no power coming out of them then they're no good. I'm hard pressed to believe both would go at the same time, so maybe the fuel pump relay is okay and just the ASD relay is shot. I think for your van the two relays are an assembly so you might end up replacing both anyway.
