Haha hasn’t been long at all has it since another post.

I did read other posts on this but I need it dumbing down again for me please.

I was cleaning the carpets and moved all the spaghetti wires yesterday. Today try and start the car up it turns over fine but fuel pump wasn’t priming.

Checked the fuse and that is okay but I don’t know what to check next. Can anyone elaborate?

Thank you yes the blue connector has a brown relay on. Has just under 12v at the connector.

Does click once for the relay immobiliser switch but not again for fuel pump.

I shall get a new one thank you smile
