My fuel pump on my 1998 Lincoln Continental has no power. I checked the fuse it is good. I checked the fuel shutoff switch it was fine. I have traced the wire from the fuel shutoff switch to the fuel module driver in the trunk. The wire has power. I have also traced the positve wire from the fuel pump to the fuel driver on a different terminal, this wire has no power from the pump. I also changed the fuel driver, the low fuel pressure switch, the alternator, and battery.does anyone have any suggestion's?

    Open the driver door and look towards the bottom of your center door post on the interior side. You will see a square hole, put your finger on the black box and press the red button.

Reset your inertia switch located in the trunk, this switch is for safety so your car won't burn in case you get hit, it is like a circuit breaker push hard to reset

1999 lincon town car no power to fuel injectors

My suggestion would be is to have your "fuel pump" checked. With the gas deposits etc, it can clog it up, or make the float stay stuck closed.

The fuel pump reset button is commonly located in the passenger compartment behind a panel near the foot boards...passenger side and looks like a relay. The red button may be protruding and simply needs to be pushed back.

check the spark plugs to see if they are getting any spark-pull one of the plugs, reconnect the wire, and hold near something metal on the car while someone turns the engine over-if no spark-it's electrical-maybe just the plugs-maybe something more serious
