Go to the pump terminals under the back seat, under the cover, and use a multimeter/circuit tester to check for a live.

you get to it through the boot and its to the drivers side, i gotta 97 import had same problems, but mine started working again after the hammer and a bit of fiddling! Been told that the wiring can get hot and then when it cools down it can damage the wiring, not sure how true this is tho mate

Fold the rear seat down. The pump is hidden under a plate. Drivers side.

turn ignition on and test for live on ig on and both cranking the key , as 1 relay gives live to prime system the other takes over for cranking and when engine is running . you can test pump by connecting a live from battery to pump conection on pump end of connector after removing from cars loom if it works you will hear the pump buzzing

The pump works took it out and wired it to battery it pumpin away...Whats the plan of action now then??

I want to test the plug goin to the pump but dunno how??
