Check if there is fuel goes to the injectors, if nothing goes that means either the discharge hose of the pump is loose or the pump’s filter got plugged.
After u check the above mentioned stuff & u still have the problem (under condition of no fuel goes to the injectors), find if one of the interconnections (within the pump) got out of its place.
If there is fuel goes to the injectors, start looking at the fuses’ box.

I've had this happen a couple of times.
1) The flexible line that goes from the pump to the feed line apparently got kinked and the pressure was enough to split the hose. The pump was pumping, but it was just going back into the tank.
2) The pressure override valve or something like that in the pump was stuck open, so the pump was pumping fuel out of the override instead of out the feed tube.
