ok i got a problem my ecu won't turn on... the ecu relay wont click on at all. but when i take direct power to the black at white wire in the engine harrness it turns on. cheacked to make sure the relay was getting power and it is. so i tested the relay and its fine. i thought i must be a ground for it. looked it up and it grounds threw the ecu in pin 4, and is a red and black wire. i test the wire by grounding it right befor the ecu plug and the ecu turns, and the relay works. a i donno where to go from there. and ontop of all that somehow my fuel pump wont turn on eather even when the ecu is on. im lost and need help

Trace your wiring. I would say you have a loose connection. How did you reconnect that ignition wire? Did you actually solder it?
