'99 3.0 4x4 83k miles.
Sits mostly, used to start it once a month but last November just wouldn't start. Have retried a couple of times and decided to get into it. It will crank over and over, strongly but not start. Installed a new crankshaft sensor, same result. Squirted starting fluid and it started but for only 3 seconds. I don't hear the fuel pump either. Inserted OBD2 reader and Torque pro gave the error "not connected to OBD interface. Connect then try again." After researching apparently there's a problem with the electrical system that is shutting power off to the computer system that is then preventing power . to the fuel pump. All fuses are good. Swapped all possible relays, all good.-like horn, blower, works when i move the relays around. What should I do next?
