Vacume Pump or lack of

So the pump was makeing noise, due to it running alot due to a leak I din't notice for a while. Fixed the leak then the pump quit altougher. Bought a new pump, now there is no power to the pump. Also no backup lights about the same time the pump quit. Is there a relay switch some where? Thanks

This truck has manual hubs so there is no solenoid. Installed a wire from the GPR to the pump and it works fine, I'll persue the lack of power to the plug and lack of backup lights as soon as it warms up a bit, thanks for your help.

Check fuse #28 in the central junction box. Verify power with a test light. This is the one for the back up lights and vacuum pump. The wiring diagram doesn't show any relay for these.

It was #28, it worked fine untill I put it in reverse. Finally traced it down to a short in the trailer plug. Didn't know I had backup lights in the trailer plug! Thanks guys.
