Long story short: I'm in the middle of a 2.7i swap. Everything is hooked up, car is cranking but at this point there is no spark, or fuel and no injector clicking when cranking. Went through the Bentley testing everything and found that there is no power to pin 37 (one of the 2 power sources of the main relay). I went to the main and found that there was at 4 prong relay instead of a 5 prong that is supposed to be there. Plug the 5 prong in and immediately fry the jumper wire that goes from one side to the other. So I had a helper connect 37 and ground and when I touch the now fried jumper wires together there's voltage to 37, but the wires are still shorting ..I'm lost as to what I should do next and not able to hold the jumper wire together long enough to see if it'll create spark, and fuel flow when cranking
