Might help to know the model, but my guess would be that its related to the fuel pump.

It's the fuel pump feed that's been cut
Get a tester and probe other side of plug your looking for a wire that goes live for a few seconds when the ign goes on and should go to earth until you crank the car over at which point it will go live again
To make sure you have the correct wire unplug the fuel pump relay and Carry out above test again wire should not go live at any point

Cheers adrian

Hmm...which I think is in the rear of the car, in which case it probably goes to the ecu.
