"Circuit tripped" means you have made a connection that works without the relay in the circuit and the fuel pump works?

That can cure the problem temporarily but remember the fuel pump will run continuously, even with the key out of the ignition switch. Don.t leave it that way or it will kill your battery, but it should make the car drivable.

I have seen one Mercedes with 4 ignition switches replaced. The woman owned 100 vending machines and kept all of the keys hanging from the ignition switch. Once she separated all the vending machine keys from the key she used to start the car her problems ended.
