2000 F-150 Will not start, fuel gauge reads empty, has 1/2 tank of fuel

When we parked the truck it was running fine. It started and died immediately 3 times and would not start again. The fuel gauge read empty. I put 5 gallons of gas in it. Gauge still reads empty. I have replaced the fuel pump, the fuel pump regulator, and the fuel filter. I have cleaned all the grounds I can find. I switched the PCM and Fuel pump relays. I had a 20 amp fuse in the fuse box under the hood blown. I replaced it and now the fuel pump runs constantly. The truck still will not start and the gauge still reads empty. Also have P0001 DTC fuel circuit open
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Power Point fuse is #1 in the engine compartment.

Have you checked fuse box by the driver's side in the cab?
