The fuel pump shut-off switch is a device intended to stop the electric
fuel pump when your vehicle has been involved in a substantial jolt.

After a collision, if the engine cranks but does not start, the fuel pump
shut-off switch may have been activated.

The fuel pump shut-off switch is
located behind an access panel in
the left rear quarter trim panel, near
the liftgate.

The fuel pump shut-off switch has a
red reset button on top of it.

If your vehicle is equipped with a
power liftgate, the fuel pump
shut-off switch will be left of the
power liftgate motor.

Use the following procedure to reset the fuel pump shut-off switch.

1. Turn the ignition to the off position.

2. Check the fuel system for leaks.

3. If no fuel leak is apparent, reset the fuel pump shut-off switch by
pushing in on the reset button.

4. Turn the ignition to the on position. Pause for a few seconds and
return the key to the off position.

5. Make a further check for leaks in the fuel system.
