I have no clue on what half of the things you say even mean.

You see, that's the problem with hardtops. You are actually tempted to lock your car.

ECU fried? Not too common.

it takes all of like three seconds to pry on the window, shove a stick down, and unlock the door.

Not as easy with a baller hardtop you don't wanna damage that might have a big overhang, but still do-able.

Ecu frying (if thats what it really is) is your car telling you it wants MS

Should I be worried, my old 93 spare key unlocked my door.

Some odd reason I have no power to my fuel pump relay. Fuses checked out fine

Do you have an EMS4? The trick would be unplug the ecu, then plug it back in, then try to get the laptop to connect, keep unplugging and re plugging till you can connect, then put a password on the unit. Then the fuel pump will prime every time the key is turned.

Hmmm. How does the FP relay and connector look? Something melted the **** out of my connector and relay back on the stock ecu and FP.

Looks fine. Should be getting 12v at the two white/blue wires with ign on but I get nothing. My 80amp fuse is fine so im gonna pull schematics up here at work.

Good luck. The schematics isnt helpful. Try jumpering the hot leads for the EFI relay and see if you have power at the connector.

I put a jumper to the fuel pump relay and ground (on the diagnostic connector under the hood) which should put voltage to my fuel pump but still nothing.

I found a thread on here that discusses a few ways to check it out. Pumps not my problem unless I have 2 bad pumps now which the bosch worked fine when removed.

No, jumpering FP to GND in the diagnostic box grounds the little green wire on the FP relay connector.

Might be a bad crank angle sensor. That's happened to me before

Well if you have no power at the white/blue wires at the FP relay. jumpering the green wire to ground does approximately dick.

Ok, jumper the EFI relay in the under hood fuse box.
