The ignition system sends a signal to the ECU that the engine is rotating, and the ECU then enables the fuel pump via the FP relay. If you crash and the engine stops, the fuel pumps stop.
I have pulled the relays by wiggling them while exerting a steady pull. They have been in there a long time and there may be some "corrosion welding" of the pins to the relay board.
