It's done trough the ECU, sounds like wiring or faulty pump !

Fuel pump fuse in fuse box under bonnet. If its blown its for a reason. Lift the pump snd check wiring. If it looks ok bench test it off a battery. Mind not to blast urself in the face wit petrol :)

Join another wire to the earth wire on ur pump and run this up to one of the bolts on the pump cover in the boot. Wrap it around it. If it works it eliminates a bad earth

if the relay is clicking,it normally means the ecu and the relay are both functioning as theyre supposed to.
as said,check the wiring to pump
