Few problems

Well that’s what I’m wondering but I’ve looked everywhere. I will have another look incase I missed it
I’ll trace them but I know it goes behind the fuse box and somewhere in the wing.
I’ve checked the 6 pin plug for 12v on the yellow/black wire and the yellow wire. I do get some voltage of about 9v but it decreases as I keep the voltmeter on it. Any ideas???

That might be okay. Those are the two wires going back to the ECU to control the two pairs of injectors. I'd expect them to be high resistance normally, and maybe float up to some number of volts, and only drop low at the moment the ECU tries to fire the injectors.
Do you see 12V arriving on that plug on the white/red wire?
Well when I put my multi meter on the white/red wire and earth I do have 12v on that plug.
Another point I want to make is that when I turn the ignition on my fuel pump relay under the dash makes a high pitch whine for about 5-10seconds and can’t understand why it does this. Any ideas on this.
never heard of a relay whining before
working through what a relay does logically, its a metal arm that actuates on and off by a given signal.
I can only think of capacitors whining when they get bad or when electricity whines at a really high current, neither of which apply here as far as I know
Wonder if its worth trying another relay to rule it out.
I’ll get another relay and try that and see what happens
But I’m also beginning to wonder whether it has an immobiliser on it somewhere because under the dashboard there’s a 15amp fuse on its own which looks like it’s been added it. I’ll take some pictures when I get home and see if I can do a video of the whining noise.
If it has an immobiliser you would know as you'd have a key for it...
I don’t have a key for it but I’m just confused as to what the extra fuss is for that’s been added in. I’ll get some photos taken tonight and put them on here
rear fog light switch?
I have had a look at that but the wires don’t seem to lead up to the switch. They seem to go off into the drivers door and then onto a relay for central locking even though it hasn’t got it
Sounds like perhaps it was fitted with an after market remote lock at some point maybe

🤣🤣 I’ll have a look in the drivers door at the weekend but I’ll deffo take some pictures tonight so you guys can see what I mean. Everything else is working perfectly on the car apart from it not getting 12v at the injectors which it had beforeSounds like perhaps it was fitted with an after market remote lock at some point maybe

It could have. I will check that out and have a look

Well, if I understand correctly, the 12V is arriving on the white/red wire at the 6-pin connector which feeds the injector loom, but doesn't get the short distance further to the white/red pins on the injector plugs. If so, that sounds like a break in the injector loom itself.
