Wh ls1 turns over but wont start

[wh-ls1]

Hey. Hopefully this is the right section. I'm having trouble with my wh statesman. It died on me last week and I've been trying to find a solution but have had no luck.

Long story short, I drove it from A to B with no issues. Went to start it up again and it fired up but was barely running and then just died. From then on it will only turn over. Ive checked out the fuses and the relays and they seem to be all good. Ive taken off the fuel line at the fuel filter and theres no fuel being pumped. I then checked to see if I was getting power at the pump and found theres no power there. I swapped the relays around but that didn't help. Im kind of stuck now and not too sure where to go from here. Ive been searching the net all week, but each problem ends up being the fuel relay.

Any ideas what else I could do?

Cheers

howd you test the relay?

I bridged the relay and still didnt get power at the pump harness. Haven't actually tested the relay. But I swapped them around.

Did you bridge the correct connections on the relay socket?
Look on the relay and match up pins 3 and 5, with the socket.
Bridge those connectors with some wire.

Thats what i tried and still nothing. Didnt have power at any of the pins at the fuel pump. Where does the wiring go after the relay socket?

Just checked for power again. Used my multi meter this time and bridged the relay. Im getting 7volts at the pump harness. Is that what it should be?

Should be 12V shouldn't it?
Nearly all the cars electrics should run off 12V.
