Fuel Pump Relay Bypass

Hi everyone!
I am new to this forum and forums in general... I'm trying to bypass the fuel pump relay(k96 I believe). The integrated relay. I have a 2009 r56 base model and I did purchase a relay harness off amazon and I thought I had it all connected right but there is still no voltage to the pump. Any advice? I really need some help
Thank you!!!!

Nicole

Would you please post the link to the Amazon relay harness that you purchased?

Can you provide some background information about your fuel problem explaining why you believe the K96 relay circuit is bad?

For example:
Did you test F43 and the K96 relay itself?
And if you install a jumper wire into K96 relay sockets A & B (terminals 30 and 87) of the JBE shown below, does your fuel pump run?

The wiring is shown in the Amazon ad. Connect the fuel pump to pins 30 & 87. The remaining pins are for controlling the relay.
