Default Fuel relay

Hi to everyone
I put my 1986 D plate rs turbo away (running ) around 5 years ago
I've taken it out to get it ready for the mot it's got no indicators or hazards working no red ignition light but turns over with power to the distributor but no power at all to the fuel pump relay (new relay)
there is no alarm or immobiliser working it was disconnected years ago anyone got any ideas
I can bypass the relay and get the pump to work but not happy about doing this
regards
Vince

Open the relay up, may just have corrosion internally, they like to gum up/varnish.If bypassing works (i assume you are just bridging at the relay connector) then it can only really be the relay itself
