If you have no power going TO the pump, then your fuse or relay cannot both be good.
It is possible for your pump to turn, but not put out adequate pressure.
It is also possible that everything up to the pump is good, but that the valve block on top of the pump is bad.
Have a qualified MB technician diagnose it.

I have no idea whether relays from other cars will work. The relays that have the proper pins and voltages are at post #10 at https://mbworld.org/forums/s-class-w...ic-issues.html
You need to have the car checked by a certified Mercedes technician. It is pretty clear that you do not understand enough about the system to troubleshoot it by yourself - and you definitely have a malfunction, and it may be serious. A certified technician can diagnose the exact problem and properly make repairs without causing additional damage, and also without replacing parts that do not need to be replaced.
I am sorry, but I do not know what you mean by "magual."
