To make a long story short, the wiring harness burned up near the back seat. I rewired everything, but couldn't get power to the fuel pump. I ended up replacing relay and fuses that were toast and still no power. When hooked up straight to battery to see if it would work, it fired right up. So I tried going from the fuse block under dash and hooking it up to one where there was power when ignition was on, but no luck. So I ended up hooking up a toggle switch from the battery to the pump and when I flip the switch it runs and never shuts off and won't start. Before when I hooked to the battery it would run for a second as if it primed up and then quit. No doesn't seem to prime. Any suggestions on what to do. I want to drive this thing again!!! Thank you

The year of your Jeep is critical info here. The 97+ pump setup is drastically different than the older years'.

Personally, I would figure out why your repair of the original wiring wasn't working and correct it so you're not messing with toggle switch hacks.

Also, did you replace the pump or not?
How did the wires burn up? External forces or did you just discover them melted for no obvious reason?
