Aye mate I noticed that when I took the kick plate off.
I'll change the two of them and see if that helps.

Ive disconnected the pipes and theres no fuel pumping out when trying
to turn it over so I dont think there is power getting to the pump.I tried
the pump before I installed it ,so I know its working ok.

Ive bridged out the two relays and can hear the pump working
But ive noticed since the cars not started that the small buzzing
noise from under the bonnet has disappeared when the ignition is on
Could this be a burnt out solenoid? Ive checked all the fuses and theyre
all ok.Ive also checked the alarm and nothing seems to be connected to
the blue and red cable
