is there a fuse for the fuel pump?
I had to jump the bike the last two times I had it started. I just put a battery in it and now it cranks but it will not fire. It seems to not be getting fuel. Is there a fuel pump fuse I've could have tripped? Please let me know. thanks.
Its a 2000 ZX12 A

I forgot to mention that I have a PCIII USB power camander. It came with the bike and I have no clue on how to operate it. When the battery went dead is there a procedure I should have followed before starting the bike back up? I do hear the fuel rail fill up when I turn the key. what do you think?

Or maybe the ground wire from the PCIII isn't connected.I have mine on the battery ground,so maybe you forgot it.

Do the headlights turn on?

The headlights did turned on and I double checked the PC ground. It seems really strange almost as if I'm not getting fuel. The pump seems to cycle when I turn the key. But then again it's a very subtle thing. Is there any way to check the fuel pump?

That was another theory! That maybe I flooded it at first shot and my continuing to crank etc... did not help. The bike will have to set a day or so now as I have to put the new battery of trickle and work will not allow me to get back to it until tuesday. I will keep everyone posted. I'm really hoping it was just flooded. Thanks!
