well, im hoping that 7 and 8, since they drew 5.6 and 7.1 volts are to the sensors. my #4 is blank - just a difference in model years? so that means 1,2,3,5,6 are my GP connectors.

so each pin except the sensor pins are testing the same as battery voltage, and #1 and #6 holes still test open for resistance.
does that mean no problem with the relay and the problem is wiring between the large connector and the GPs since the GPs themselves are new?

by the way, thank you all so much for the incredible help! having little $ to my name and relatively little mechanical knowledge, fixing my car with your help is the only way i'll be able to visit family for the hoplidays...
