Did the MIL come on (service engine soon) before it died?
Check your fuel pump fuse. Use a voltmeter and check for the presence of 12.6 volts on the fuel pump power line - you will only see this for two seconds upon putting the key in the ON position - you may need help with this because you will likely need to do this a few times, and be prepared to view that reading quickly.
Check all grounds in the fuel pump wiring harness.
Check the fuel pump relay.

yeah it was the fuse it blew i replaced fuse good as new. it blew cuz my dad has the constent power comming out of there for the fans from a relay so that the fans could run all the time. my dad is going to run them off a switch due to there is too much load comming out.

these fans are not designed to constantly run....your fan/[s] may now need replacing....if the fuse blows again check for higher current flow to fan motor[s]...
perhaps your ECT needs replacing if fans will not come on at the proper engine temp...... good luck
