Just tried to start car,ok yesterday today it wont start.
Engine turns over but fuel pump does not prime,pump does work if i cross terminals on relay but still wont fire.
Do you think its a relay or may be a imobilizer problem
Just washed the car ,suns out and im stuck indoors
Many thanks

spent ages going through wiring to relays,including signal wire to ecu, all ok, but no signal from ecu,
Check fuse for ecu
DOH
No bloody fuse
Fuse must have come loose and dropped out
Did not think to check ecu as engine was turning over
Lesson learnt, check the obvious first

The ECU fuse, is it one of the fuses above the battery?
