* Fuel pump relays are common: They are a standard component in most vehicles, acting as a safety switch and preventing the fuel pump from running continuously even if the ignition is off.
* Fuel pump location: The fuel pump relay is usually located within the engine compartment's fuse box or in a separate relay box.
How to find out for sure:
1. Check your owner's manual: It will likely list the location of the fuel pump relay.
2. Consult a repair manual: A repair manual for your specific model will contain detailed diagrams and descriptions of all components.
3. Look for a dedicated fuse box: Locate the fuse box under the hood or dashboard and check if it has a section labeled "relays." The fuel pump relay may be in this section.
4. Check online resources: Websites like Mazda forums or repair manuals may have information about your vehicle's fuel pump relay location.
Note: If you're having trouble finding the relay or suspect it's faulty, it's best to consult a qualified mechanic.
