Possible fuel pump problem need help

I was taking off to work this morning and I go about 1/2 mile up the road and it just died on me.After getting it to the house I took off the main hose going to the motor and tried to crank it and nothing--no fuel.I figured the fuel pump went out but I just checked the wires going to the pump with the car on and I am getting no voltage to the pump.Is there a fuse somewhere that could have blown?
if so please tell me where to find this thing.

Ironic...I'm having the same issue with my car tonight. I haven't checked the voltage, but it didn't make any noise at all so I'm sure there is prolly no voltage. I just wanna get my car started again so I can get some insurance and take it for a REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY long drive. Anybody know what gives?

I put a fuel cut switch on mine a month ago,the targa switch still lights up so there has to be voltage,But when I turn the ignition on and stick a meter on to the connector to the fuel pump in the back I get nothing--where is the help when we need it--

The fuel pump won't run with just the ignition switched on. It'll only run if the engine is cranking or running, or if you jumper the fuel pump check connector. It's a yellow 2-pin connector by the FR strut tower.
