Should be able to access the pump through the boot floor - so no need to drop the tank. Just remove the trim from the door edge, lift the carpets to gain access to the fuel pump cover - Sorry can't help with wire's.

Removed red pipe from fuel filter turned on ign nothing.Removed pump through boot floor disconected four pipes and plug,with ign on there is 12v supply. Got fuel pump at home on bench conected to 12v. battery works for a bit then stops bash it on the bench and it starts for a few seconds then stops. I think that confirms it is shot. Thanks for advice.
