   Right my fuel pump on the VTR isn't priming. I think i've checked all the fuses (under the bonnet and glove box) unless I've missed some, so if anyone knows the numbers/locations I'd appreciate it.
   Also had a new fuel pump relay and the cut off switch has not popped up.
   Anyone got any more recommendations for me to try?

   I believe the ECU light is working, can you point me in the direction of it on the dash?
   I know the pump works as I gave it a feed from a car start battery pack with some spare wire and some push fit connectors and the car starts just fine but obviously the pump is running all the time like that.
   Also that fuel pump fuse in the engine bay fusebox is fine, was the first thing I changed.

   Ecu is the orange k on the right ish
   
   If its on stage 1 of the relay works,the pump is stage 2.
   
   Check the fusebox theres 2 2 pin connectors, one is yellow the other green and the wires are thick and blue. these all need to be live
