power to fuel relay....none

I have an ongoing post on here about not starting...still haven't figured it out yet, but this is just about the relay and solenoid.

I ruled out the solenoid a while ago, it operates fine. So, I was going to order a new relay from LarryB's, but I went out with a test light first, results:

I have power with the key off to the load circuit side of both relays (fuel shut-off & fuel heater) like I should, and nothing on the control circuit, because the key is off. With they key on, power comes on to the control circuit side of the fuel heater but not the shut-off relay.

So the fuel heater works fine but Im not getting power from the key to the shut-off relay on the control side. Therefore the relay might be just fine, but I cant get power to it, to close the load side.

ANYTHING WOULD BE GREAT!!!
I dont know much about electronics.
