It all started with a relay

Okay, so the original OEM ASD relay and Fuel Pump relay went one after the other. So replacing both of them the car fired again and drove it for a short time no problem. So over the past 6 months I've replaced the Fuel Pump relay 6 times. Each time I replaced it the car would fire right up. This time is a different story. I put the new one in the door open light was on in the dash and as soon as I turned the key to start it, nothing. New plugs,new wires,new ASD relay,new Fuel relay, and new fuesable and alternator fuse. I sprayed connecter cleaner on the plug ins because it had a white,greasy build up in and around the bottom of the connector plug. I even changed the ECU with the other one that I have. I have ZERO lights on in the dash now. Door open key turned over, the dome light will not even come on. So I'm assuming,as this is my first Talon, the only thing I can think it could be at this point would be an actualy wiring issue. Are there any diagrams available to show where the wires that run from the relay plug ins go so I could possibly check other points the wires run through to check for breakage or shortage. The Haynes Repair manual I looked over for this particular incident was useless. Thanks in advance.
 
You should have tried to find out why you needed to replace the fuel pump relay 6 times. That is definitely not a good thing, and needs to be remedied.

You have probably let a small problem become bigger now, i did the same thing a couple times, so don't feel bad, but be in for a likely long and painful process. I would just trace the wires, i think there might be some diagrams in the tech article section.

*edit*

Found a FSM for you, its 97-99 so some wiring might not match up, but should be enough to get you going
