* Under the hood, in the fuse box: This is the most common location. The fuse box is usually located near the battery. The relay itself will likely be labeled, but you might need to consult your owner's manual or a wiring diagram to be certain.
* Under the dash, in the fuse panel: Less common, but possible. This is usually located under the steering wheel or on the driver's side dashboard. Again, a diagram will be necessary to identify it.
To find it accurately:
1. Consult your owner's manual: This is the best place to start. The manual will have a diagram showing the location of all fuses and relays.
2. Use an online wiring diagram: Search online for a "Saturn Ion [Year] wiring diagram" or "Saturn Ion [Year] [Engine size] fuse box diagram." Many websites offer free diagrams.
3. Look for markings: Once you locate the fuse box (under the hood or under the dash), carefully examine the relays. Some might be labeled directly as "fuel pump," "pump," or similar.
Without knowing the specific year and engine size of your Saturn Ion, I can't give a more precise location. Using the resources above is crucial for accurate identification. Remember to always disconnect the negative battery terminal before working with electrical components.
