Mini cooper s r56 turbo wont start unless i pull high pressure fuel pump plug off, 2 wired plug.

[Baileyboy2008]

As per title any ideas, car just cut out dead and will not start unless I pull the 2 wire plug off the high pressure pump solenoid. I also get no reading at all on the dianostic fuel pressure check. I have 72 psi when connecting my fuel pressure gauge to the line.

Hi,bud,you may need to get yourself a more comprehensive reader,but the fuel system on those,has a few common issues.
You need to test the primary pump in the tank,which makes the above 72 psi,to supply high pressure unit.

As with any problem solving mission,it will need approaching from the very beggining ,and not omitting any of the steps.
