Generally, you'll find the components in one of these areas:
* Under the hood fuse box: This is the most common location for at least the *fuse* for the fuel pump circuit. The relay might also be here, but sometimes it's in a separate box.
* Under-dash fuse panel: Less common for the fuel pump relay itself, but some models might have it here.
* Passenger compartment fuse box (sometimes in the glove box or under the dash): This is another possible location, though less likely for the relay.
To find the specific location:
1. Find your owner's manual: This is the most reliable source of information.
2. Look for the diagrams: The manual will contain diagrams of the fuse boxes and relay panels, clearly labeling each component.
3. Locate the fuel pump fuse and/or relay: The manual will tell you the fuse/relay number and its location within the box.
Without knowing the year of your Ford Taurus or Mercury Sable, it's impossible to give a precise answer. Using the owner's manual is crucial to avoid damaging your vehicle's electrical system.
