Fuel issue on MEP-005A

Just got a MEP-005A filled up all fluids and replaced filters. Put in 2 new batteries and went to give her a try.
It sputtered and tried to fire up at first, but the nothing. I figured it was not getting fuel, so I pulled the filter and no fuel. I thought it might be a bad pump but it does not seem to be getting power to the fuel pump.

Not sure what to do next, any suggestions ?

Thanks !

I figured it out quite by accident - while testing the second fuel pump (in battle short mode) i accidentally ground the lead and the dc breaker fully tripped. When I reset the breaker the both fuel pumps kicked on like nothing had happened. Must have been partially tripped to begin with, but now is working fine.

Thanks,
