Here's what the problem was in one case:
 
Loose wire to starter connection as well as corrosion in between the battery cable bolts and the connection cover over the bolts. Even though I had cleaned the wall of the battery and the bolt threads, there was poor continuity from bolt to cable...
 
Good Luck

Hi I'm new here I have a 99 venture van, We were going down the road and it died. I had it towed home. I frist checked moge and was good replaced the coils. Got plenty of fire. But no fuel if you squirt fuel in the intake it will run until fuel runs out. I've replaced the Fuel Pump and relay and still the pump won't kick on also replaced the fuel filter. With no luck I'm stumped any Ideals anyone. Thx alot David

Hi,
 
I don't know what a "moge" is, but I'm glad you checked it.
 
Here's something to look at:
 
If you follow the wires back from the fuel pump, they go to a Pass-thru connector under the drivers seat - this connector has been known to get corroded and fail and make techs think the fuel pump/relay was bad - pull it open and make sure that everything is Ok in there...

Got it, never heard it called a "moge" before.
 
Follow the wires back from the fuel pump and they'll run along the drivers side. You'll see a connector underneath the car, approximately under the drivers seat, maybe just a little back, access it while you're laying underneath the van...its there...pull the plug out and check the contacts, look for corrosion or damage or water infiltration. Its there where the wires "pass through" into the cabin and head forward. Check this connector and check it on the inside of the cabin too. I don't believe there's a code for when the fuel pump isn't getting the 12V it needs to run.
 
Good Luck,
 
John

Thx for the info, I ran the wires from the engine dept, I have no fire back to the box. I unplugged the connector from the box an the lead to the eng dept is dead. I chased the wires up to the eng there are some bad spots on the conduit but no break's in the wire's it self. That I could see. I did get a code for a cam sensor. I know it will stop fuel to the injector, But will it stop fire to the pump itself. The book dosent really say. Thx for all your help. David
