Have you checked for spark?Is the security light on or flashing?You will have to get a fuel pressure gauge to test the fuel pressure.Do you have any codes in the computer?

security light was flashing but changed a fuse and is now ok..
the fuel doesnt seem to be getting to the engine and cant get a live feed from the pump....

If the security light is on solid or flashing it wont start.What fuse did you change?You will only have power to the fuel pump for a couple of seconds when turning the key to the run position and while cranking to start the car also while the engine is running.Do you have spark?
