Provide greater details on the car and condition. Side hit?
Measure voltage at the battery, at the hot post in the engine compartment.

Check fuel pump relay at the board pin 15 or 30 (voltmeter in the pin slot and a lead on ground) for voltage, do you hear it when the engine cranks? If not try putting a jumper wire in the relay slots (on the board) between pin locations 15 or 30 and 87.

On these cars (and most german elect) pin 15 is HOT when ignition switch is in ON position, pin 30 is always HOT, pin 87 is voltage path to device.
