FUEL PUMP SHUT-OFF SWITCH

This device stops the electric fuel pump from sending fuel to the engine
when your vehicle has had a substantial jolt.

After an accident, if the engine cranks but does not start, this switch
may have been activated.

The fuel pump shut-off switch is
located in the front passenger
footwell area in the right upper
corner.

To reset the switch:

1. Turn the ignition to 1 (LOCK).

2. Check the fuel system for leaks.

3. If no leaks are apparent, reset the
switch by pushing in on the reset
button.

4. Turn the ignition to 3 (RUN).

5. Wait a few seconds and return
the key to 1 (LOCK).

6. Make another check for leaks.

FUSES AND RELAYS

Fuses

If electrical components in the
vehicle are not working, a fuse may
have blown. Blown fuses are
identified by a broken wire within
the fuse. Check the appropriate
fuses before replacing any electrical
components.
