If you're certain there's plenty of fuel in the RHS (pump side) of the tank and the pump runs for several seconds with the ignition on, then logic suggests the pump itself is faulty. If the pump was pumping, the Schrader valve would exhibit a 50psi level of fuel.

You said earlier that you'd added some fuel to the tank. Was this around a litre or a larger amount? The pump has to be submerged enough to flood the priming valve or it can't pressurise nor transfer. The gauge reading isn't much help here.
