if you wire it directly then friends wrong motor is fine. Going to be electrical problem for sure i say check the wires volts before the relays.

relays are dirt cheap. good waterproof are $2ea in bulk. replace both relays and while you are in there check all terminals for a solid & corrosion free conection including the griund strap to engine block, the resettable circuit breaker, and the starter solenoid.

have you spent $4 worth of time yet?
In the long run its easier to just
1) hot wire the motor to make sure it works
2) replace the relays
3) check wiring while putting in new relays

yeah sounds like bad relays man, you did the test and it failed if no current is coming out. considering how cheap they are i would just go ahead a replace them like advised above.
