2000 Jaguar xk8 fuel pump issues

![Question](https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Hi all I am new to the jaguar forums. I have a jaguar xk8 that has not started in several years. By going through threads on this website I discovered my main issue was that the fuel pump was not working. I used the hole in the trunk method (convertible) to replace the old fuel pump with a new one. After replacing the pump and fuel filter I got the car to run and idle for 20 minutes with no issues. I had to leave the car sitting again for two weeks while I was on vacation. When I returned the fuel pump will no longer activate. I already tried resetting the inertia switch under the dash to no avail. If anyone has any ideas what would cause this please let me know.

Thanks for the reply! Yes I tried swapping the relay for another. About 5 gallons had been left in the tank- I siphoned the gas out and cleaned the inside of the tank the best I could, then added 10 gallons and a fuel cleaning additive before starting the car. I'll check the voltage through the hole today.
