If you don't hear the BZZZT under the hood when you turn on
the key, it could be relay #10, it's the one to the left
of the spare fuses. Try removing it and cleaning the contacts.
Usually a little jiggling is enough. You can jump it with a piece
of wire and two spade connectors to test. Very common problem.
This is the fuel pump relay. Check fuses too while you're there.
