Default No start condition 2005 EGC, fuel injected

I went to start my bike today and while it would spin, it would not start. Never had any kind of trouble since I bought it last November. I rode it one day, parked it for a couple of days, then no start today. I suspect it's fuel related. I don't hear the fuel pump kicking on. I got the 05 Touring manual at the local dealership a week after I got the bike. There is a 'no start' troubleshooting guide in it, but the procedure listed is for a carbed bike, no mention of fuel injection. The schematics do show the EFI wiring. I tried a voltmeter at a couple of different places, but long story short, it appears there is no voltage at the fuel pump sender. Fuel pump fuse, ign fuse, and relay are good, but no voltage at the sender harness. If you were diagnosing no voltage to the fuel pump, where would you start?

Check the fuses first and then check your system relay. Easy check for that is with the cover off the fuse box locate the System Relay and put your finger on it. When you turn on the ignition, you should feel it click. Hope this helps.

The main ECM fuse controls the Fuel Pump. Check that.

Both the fuel pump and ecm fuses are good, ignition fuse too. I can read ohms across the fuel pump itself, so I think the pump is good too.

The ECM sends a high signal to the FP to turn on and pump, which is that you hear. So if you aren't hearing the FP turn on and the fuses are good you need to check your connections. The pump is in the tank, I'm not sure how it wires uo for power and signals.

Due you have an alarm?
If i understand the starter is cranking as normal but bike does not start.
The fuel pump does not prime and there is no voltage reaching fuel pump?
Is something loose or a pin requires cleaning at the ECM connection.
