Grab a multimeter and start learning how to do basic electrical troubleshooting.

Anyway, you want to find out where the power stops. The battery is the starting point, and the fuel pump is the ending point. Somewhere in the middle power is being interrupted, so that's the point that you want to find. You'll probably want the schematics too (if the problem is any more complicated than a blown fuse), so it might be a good idea to Google the factory manual for your car.

there is no diagram on the fuse box so i cant tell whether the fuse is under the dash or under the hood. i tried checking for a fuse.

You should probably find some help from a friend who is less deterred by a lack of proper labeling on the fuse box.

And everything you need to know is in the factory service manual.
