my 1978 does not have control panel only a rocker switich for the pump a 12 volt test light is a 6 doller tool you need if you have power at the pump then probly the pump no power check if fuse does not look bad try a new one anyway glass fuses can look good and not be good workyour way pump on back follow the wires

if there is any other problem check all fuses the old glass fuses can look good and not be good remove one at atime and check for loose ends on the fuses check the wires on top of the gas tank
