F1 Pump Failure?

Got the dreaded Transmission error warning whilst driving today. Car continued to shift fine for a while, then refused to come out of 4th so I pulled over and turned it off. After that it wouldn't turn over and no gear shift available. Tried a battery reset but no joy there.
I suspect either F1 relay or pump. I happen to have a spare relay so swapped that out - no difference. Pump isn't priming/making any noise although I can hear the relay clicking. Put the old relay back in - same. So sounds to me like the relay is ok therefore must be a pump/motor issue.
Anything else I can try other than getting it to a garage and forking out for a new pump?

Short of making sure you're getting 12v to the pump, I suspect you've covered all the bases.

Maybe someone else will have another thought

Yep I’d say that’s goosed. Still, it’s a cheaper job than the clutch.

Some small mercy.

I've seen quite a variation in prices for these pumps online....what's the going rate?

Cheers...for comparison what do genuine Maserati ones go for? I've seen £1500+ on eBay!

I have a few Maserati boxes laying around, maybe I should try and sell them!

I must have 20-25 Maserati boxes in the garage taking up space... seems they are worth more than the car!
