To reset the switch(es):

1. Turn the ignition to the off position.

2. Check the fuel system for leaks.

3. If no leaks are apparent, reset the switch by pressing in on the reset
button. Both switches should be checked and reset.

4. Turn the ignition to the on position.

5. Wait a few seconds and return the key to the off position.

6. Make another check for leaks.

If you see or smell fuel, do not reset the fuel pump shut-off or try to
start your vehicle; you could injure yourself or others. Have all the
passengers get out of the vehicle and call the local fire department or a
towing service.

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.

Note: Always replace a fuse with one that has the specified amperage
rating. Using a fuse with a higher amperage rating can cause severe wire
damage and could start a fire.
