vr4 wont start

i thought i had a bad alternator but i think its the fuel pump relay. i connected the fuse/relay directly to the battery then it started but when i took it off it stopped. do you guys think its a bad fuel pump connection or something else?

This happens if the ecu don't see a crank/cam signal, so it won't send voltage to the relay. Also make sure your coolant temp is plugge and good. It will not start if the ecu don't see it

 

thanks do you know how i can fix this?

A mitsubishi that won't start? I'm shocked. Never heard of such a thing. Oh wait, neither will mine.

I'm slightly confused. Have you put 12V to the fuel pump test port to verify that the fuel pump can run? Are you sure you have spark?
