The GPR doesn't have anything to do with the relay. On a 99 model with no WTS light, often times it's a shorted fuel bowl heater that will blow fuse #30. The fix is to unplug the fuel bowl heater (on the back side of the fuel filter bowl), then replace the fuse and start her up. You don't need the heater, so just leave it unplugged for now.

How did it sound before it died? All other fuses check good, both under the steering wheel and under the hood? When you turn the key on, do you hear the fuel pump come on (it's on the frame below the driver seat and will make a humming or buzzing noise)?

Is your engine oil full? Fuel bowl full of diesel? After you crank the truck for a few seconds, does the tach bounce or move up? Oil pressure gauge start to move?
