When you first turn on the key(to the run position without starting)there is a small hum from the gas tank.(your Fuel Pump) No Hum Usually means no pumping Thus a pump may be required.

2004 Dodge Stratus, with a possible electrical problem.?

A bad fuel pump is a reasonable guess, but it could be any number of problems. You can disconnect the line and check if fuel is being pumped when the ignition is on. If you are not careful, you could be pumping gasoline all over the engine and yourself. This would not be a perfect test because if it is pumping fuel, it may not be at enough pressure, and if it isn't pumping fuel, it may be just the filter that is plugged and needs replacement. A shop can do the test easily and safely. Be prepared, a new fuel pump and the labour is expensive

Ask yourself one question: Do you let your tank go almost empty a lot? This can wear out a fuel pump. However, this many not be your problem. It could be your fuel pump relay. Or even your fuel filter is clogged.

The best thing that you need to do is send it to a mechanic that offers free check up or consultation. He'll look at your problem, tell you what it is, and give you an estimate for the cost of repairing it. If it's too high, shop around, or even buy the part yourself and take it somewhere cheaper.
