Default loud fuel pump noise but no start

hi everyone
today i wanted to start my car but did not crank at all. i just hear both fuel pumps the stock and pierburg make a really loud noise like sending fuel. i think its the starter because before i had to rock the car a little to start it. and this has been going on for a while. but what s weird is taht the fuel pump didnt make this really loud noice before. does anyone have an idea what it could be
thanks.

sounds like a starter issue. you can verify by jump F/P and GND in the diagnostics box and making sure the pump runs then try starting the car.
