ABS pump replacement gone wrong
recently my ABS pump went. i would hear the pump run for longer then 5 minutes and i had the 3 lights (ABS, PARKING BREAK, TC) and i couldn't figure it out until someone on the other forums informed me that it sounded like my pump was shot. i purchased a used one off ebay that was listed as working but when i installed it today the pump wouldnt even make a peep and the lights on the dash remained. i didn't get to bleed the master cylinder as i wanted to make sure the pump functioned before going through the entire bleeding procedure but i wasn't getting any noise from the pump. i then decided that maybe the pressure switch was faulty so i replaced it with the pressure switch on my old abs brake pump and still nothing. i plugged up the nanocom to attempt to the bleed on just the nanocom to see if maybe that changes something but i kept getting a "unable to connect to ecu" error on nanocom. i let the car run a bit and still the three lights remained.
not sure where to go now. any assistance would be much appreciated.

i have to also add that just recentely opened up my fusebox to fix the positive feed because it was completely cooked out. i fixed it and check all other solders to make sure they were good and everything was pretty solid. also tried another relay to make sure the relay wasn't cooked either.
just another follow up here. bypassed the relay, pump is in fact working. i let the system get up to pressure which took less than 30 seconds and then i pressed the brakes a couple times to see what would happen.
everytime i press the brakes i hear the pump go off and the traction control light goes on everytime i press the brakes. after a couple presses i get a "traction control overheat" fault on the dash, could this be a bad accumulator on my new pump?
i checked faults as i was able to connect to ECU and no faults on nanocom
