You obviously have a fault in the wiring loom at some point (sure you dont realy need me to tell you that). First you need to get a wiring diagram so that you can follow the wiring route from its feed to the earth point. Make a test lamp if you dont have 1 from a 12v bulb and wiring then follow the feed from the output at the fuse box to all the points through to the pump. If there is no point where you can check between the fuse and the pump but there is a break in the wire between the 2 points the wire could be replaced with wire of the same rating if correctly routed and insulated.
