Default 2002 Fiesta Starting problem

Hi Guys,

Hoping someone can help. My Girlfriends 2002 fiesta is not starting...

It seems to be a fuel issue as I can get it to start by splashing a bit of fuel into the intake however it dies as soon as this is used. Also I have noticed I cannot hear the fuel pump sound when the car ignition is switched on before start.

Can someone point me in the direction of the fuel pump and perhaps what the wires are so I can test if its getting power.

Also what fuse is for the fuel pump?

I have read somewhere that the water temp sensor can control fuel at start. Anyone had this problem?

As far as I know, these cars don't have an access panel. You'll have to drop the fuel tank to get to the fuel pump and the wiring.
