Default No start, no pump prime

My jeep randomly will not start. When this happenes the fuel pump will not prime. It will start sometime later. Sometimes an hour or a day later. The relay is new and working fine.

When asking for help on a forum, you'll get the best response if you provide enough information for intelligent troubleshooting. This means, at a minimum, the vehicle year and engine type. At this point, we don't even know if you have a Grand Cherokee (which is NOT a Cherokee), or a Cherokee, what year it is, or what engine.

It's also useful to tell us the history of the problem, and what steps, if any, you have taken already to try to troubleshoot it.

Watch a few videos on how to check your fuel pressure at the engine rail with gauges. Free rental at most auto parts places.
