My car will not start. I have replaced fuel pump and fuel pump relay. Still have signs of no power to the fuel pump. Also have checked fueses and its all good. What else should i look for to determine the problem?

i'm having trouble with my 2001 1.8t as well...a TSB regarding coolant leaking at the overflow bottle sensor contaminating the wiring harness and possibly requiring replacement of the entire harness, the fuel pump/sender, all computers, and the instrument cluster. check your coolant sensor for a leak into the harness...maybe your experiencing the effects of corrosion at the harness like i am. if so, i do not know what the fix is except replacing thousands of dollars worth of parts, as the dealer and my mechanic suggested to me. in my case...unless someone shoots back a response with a quicker/cheaper fix in the next few weeks...my 1.8t is turning into parts on ebay. hope this helps.
