Where is the fuel pump relay on a 1990 ford Taurus?

The fuel pump relay location on a 1990 Ford Taurus is in the Power Distribution Box (PDB), often called the fuse box under the hood. However, pinpointing the exact location *within* that box requires a little more detective work.

Your best bet is:

1. Consult your owner's manual: This is the most reliable source. It will show a diagram of the fuse/relay box and identify the fuel pump relay.

2. Look for a diagram on the inside of the fuse box cover: Many fuse boxes have a diagram printed on the inside of the cover. This diagram will show the location of each fuse and relay.

3. Use a multimeter: If you can't find a diagram, carefully examine the relays within the PDB. A multimeter can help identify the correct relay by testing for continuity (with the ignition in the "on" position) to the fuel pump circuit. Caution: This requires some electrical knowledge and should be done carefully to avoid short circuits.

Important Note: Without a diagram, identifying the fuel pump relay by visual inspection alone is difficult as many relays look alike. Using a multimeter is the safest way to be sure if you are unable to find a diagram.
