Thanks fixkick;
Not being too multimeter savvy, I guess I misunderstood the meter test, by having the neg ground give me a false reading as to the voltage of my wires and connectors. Once I did the crossover test between the +pos and -neg at the pump wires and then the connector, it showed little to no voltage. So I attached an alligator clip and wire from the neg ground behind the taillight to the neg pump terminal, and voila the pump buzzed once the key was turned on. Since this problem was intermittent over the years, it was a hard one to catch. I haven't tried the full pump test with gasoline yet, but knowing I get it to buzz is satisfying. Glad you were there to assist me.
