For very obvious reasons, the question of how to reset or bypass any vehicle alarm or immobiliser should not really be discussed on an open forum.

I believe the 2.5td has a transponder style immobiliser which disables the engine via the ECU. In any case, the in-tank pump is just a lift pump without which the engine will run, but be troublesome to start.

It sounds like a matter of tracing the circuit from battery through whatever fuses and relay(s) to the tank to find out where the fault is.

Haynes manual has the 2.5td wiring diagrams in the back, I believe.

just an update, all wires to the pump ok, all wires to feul pump relay ok,fuel pump relay ok,checked heater in fuel line by the filter (if that is the right 1), fuel pump runs when power straight off the battery also runs when car running, now fault seems to be only intermitant and only on cold start any ideas coz i`ve ran out  :-? >:(

if i remember right you only get a short pulse af the fuel pump,
when ignition first turned on to prime the lines to the injector pump, think about 5 secs or so, then its off until the engine runs and it then gets power from alternator?,
