Where is the reset switch located for fuel pump on a 1993 Chrysler LeBaron?

There isn't a reset switch for the fuel pump on a 1993 Chrysler LeBaron (or virtually any modern car). Fuel pumps don't have reset switches like some other car components might.

If your LeBaron's fuel pump isn't working, the problem is likely one of the following:

* Blown fuse: Check your owner's manual to locate the fuel pump fuse and check its condition.

* Relay failure: The fuel pump relay controls power to the pump. This is more likely than a blown fuse. Locate the relay (usually in the underhood fuse box) and test or replace it.

* Fuel pump motor failure: The pump itself may have failed. This requires replacing the fuel pump, usually involving dropping the fuel tank.

* Wiring issues: A short or break in the wiring to the pump is a possibility. This is hard to diagnose without specialized tools.

* Inertia switch (sometimes called a crash switch): Some cars have an inertia switch designed to cut power to the fuel pump in a collision. This switch might be tripped and need to be reset (usually involves a manual reset button). It's worth checking your owner's manual to see if your LeBaron has one and where it's located.

Instead of looking for a "reset switch," troubleshoot the fuel system systematically using the above steps, and consulting your vehicle's repair manual or a qualified mechanic.
