Fuel pump issue

I have a 93 ford f150 with dual tanks. I drove it this morning for like 4 hours, shut it off, went back out 10 min later and the truck will turn over but not fire. I can usually hear the pump kick on but now I can't. I can flip between tanks and don't hear it for either tank. I checked the inertia switch and it was pushed down. I also checked the fuse and relay and they were fine. I'm thinking I have to find a broken wire, but was hoping for another possible solution before tracing wires or buy the pump.
