Fuel pump harnes?

Hi everyone, i'll try to make it short
had my xj8 y1998 standing outside the house for 2 years ( snow, rain, sun and so on) finished my garage and decided to take the car in, turned the engine by hand a few times then cranked it with fuel pump fuse out to lift the oil, after that car started immediately.
After standing in the garage about 2 months I needed to pul in other car for engine rebuild but this time the jag refused to start, no smell of unburned fuel came from exhaust pipes... Since lack of time I haven't checked if there are fuel in the cylinders or if fuel pump makes any sound ( will do that next time)
So my question , is it possible that electrical connections of the pump could be oxidized and if yes where should I look? ( humidity in the garage is quite high since house is not finished yet and it's not heated)
What else should I check? Relays? Can I test the pump without taking it out? Connecting it directly to battery perhaps?
