thanks for suggestions, where would one find the pump and relay?
the immobiliser is disarmed as soon as i unlock the car, if the immobiliser kicks in again it stops the engine from cranking over so i cant see it being the alarm and immobiliser causing the pump not to prime.

the pump is accessed from inside the boot through an inspection hole on the offside. the relay is under the dashboard behind the clocks.
easiest to check at the pump end first as the relays an a*rse to get to
