NO START 2nd gen: P1689 code
Hello;
Looking for advice for the truck in my signature. It is currently stranded at my in-laws house.
It will not start. It does turn over just fine but does not fire up. I am getting code P1689.
I just replaced the airbag clockspring, so I had the batteries unhooked. I actually got 3 bad clocksprings from the parts store (made in China parts). The batteries ended up being unhooked for about 3 days
During my troubleshooting of the horn circuit from the bad clocksprings, I was moving relays around and otherwise poking around in the fuse box underhood.
The truck ran perfectly fine before I worked on the airbag clockspring.
I'm worried it is the injection pump, but how would this go out just from working on the horn-circuit and clockspring??!!
My signature is accurate, except for the truck as 323,xxx miles now.
Also, I do believe it may be the original injection pump as it looks like a factory label on it. Can't see all of it but it looks like a mopar part number and says "made in germany" on it (Bosch pump?).
Am I just screwed and going to have to shell out the $$ for an injection pump?
Any other troubleshooting I can do?
Thanks in advance for any and all replies

UPDATE:
I got back running today. Turns out it was a bad connection at the fuel pump relay.
I guess when I was swapping relays to trouble-shoot the horn not working it distrubed the contacts underneath where the relays go.
I had to tweak the tangs on the relay a bit to get more friction when installing. All is good now.
I notice the thread was moved from the "emergency section". My apologies if I was in the wrong spot; but my truck was stranded until this morning.
