Sounds like you have a short somewhere. Did you replace the pump or just remove and reinstall the same one?

With a multimeter : do you get a voltage at the pump? Do you have continuity between the fuel pump wires? If not fuel pump might be burned(open circuit).

Check the fuel pump relay which is in the small relay box under the hood, If I remember it is green.

Thank you for the help! It was the fuel pump.
