Hi there,
When it comes to electrical issues to check or tap into. We recommend it is best to consult a wiring diagram manual specific to your vehicle application (year, make, model, submodel, and engine size). You can get that info from the dealer or rent a repair manual from a shop. In general, the wires that give power to the fuel pump are colored black and gray or black and purple. It is best to verify this info using the specific wiring diagram for your vehicle to avoid confusion or damaging the fuel pump. I hope this helps!
