Water cooling problems!

I just can never seem to get a break with water cooling. This is my 6th build and this time I can’t get the water to flow. Yes the pump is full power and been moving the case around to try and bleed bubbles. I have a flow indicator and it doesn’t show that water is flowing it is just sitting still. 
I have a 420mm and a 360mm rad with a gpu block and cpu block and that’s it in the loop

I'm new in water cooling but those last 2 images give me some question.

Is that tube which connects from pump to the GPU an outlet or inlet?

Maybe you place the pump-res combo with wrong orientation that makes the pump can't flow the liquid properly?

That’s possible 

what I’m going to try is doing a different pump top and seeing how that affects the flow and then also try and check the cpu block and see if it’s junked you cause I reused it from another build. 

In regards to The pump and the flow. The outlet of the pump goes into the gpu then it goes to cpu then flow indicator then to rad and rad then back to pump

What do the temps say? Did you check the flow meter prior to install?
