Question about a relay

Ok, I am ready to go to work, crank the car and die right away. Check spark, ok. Check fuel pump, ok. Trased relay related to fuel pump and when I put the ignition, power comes to the main wire ( Blue and Red) but no power comes out from that relay to the brown and red wires (3 wires) even when cranking the engine. Would that relay be the one causing the problem? That the one by the master cylinder according to the book.

Thanks in advanced.

it could be the relay but put a test light on the fuel pump wire at the fuel pump and turn the key as the car is cranking look at the light it should be flashing on and off if it lights up then it has power the pump might be bad.

Thank you mi pana but I did that test already and there was nothing ( No power coming). That's when I traced the relay and found that there was power coming on switch ON but nothing coming out of the relay.
