Problem sorted Driver side kickpanel. Right hand side of accelerator pedal. Some GENIUS who thought he knows better than manufacturer Decided to remove some of original wiring on fuel relay and connected his own wires. Did not want to search for problem "I Suppose". I opened the fuel relay. Inside i found a small pc bord with 2x small relays on it. I resoldered all connections on pc bord.(I could see some dry joints on pins). One track was damaged on pc.By previous Genius.So I repaired track on pc. Then after closing relay i sorted out wiring and connected ORIGINAL WIRES to relay. All sorted without paying 1 cent. A bit of testing required on where to connect Original wires. If you have knowledge on how a relay works its not a big issue. So ja. Maby this info will help someone in future. Cheers!!!
