    Checked all the stuff. I have like no pressure in the fuel rail but it's been sitting all night. And now the car will not crank. Turn key and just nothing. No click nothing.

    I can get the pump to turn on and stay on by plugging in the fuel lvl gauge wrong and turning the lights on. Why won't it crank with the lights off?

    Have you tried disconnecting the battery for 30 minutes or so? Worth a shot, Ive heard of it fixing a security light no start. If I was closer I would be curious to see if I could pull some codes or data from the bcm or whatever would be possible.

    idk about the wont crank with the lights off unless now some how you are back feeding 12v from the illumnation circuit into something that needs to be powered up to start.

    so u hook up the fuel level gauge and the pump turns on. thats gonna be an issue for sure. the fuel pump should not get power from the gauge. whats the model number of the gauge?

    if you want to try the battery thing pull both terminals and touch both terminals together with them both removed from the batter this = no wait time and any codes are now clear.
