Where is the fuel pump relay on a 1989 ford crown Victoria?

The fuel pump relay location on a 1989 Ford Crown Victoria isn't standardized in one single place across all models. It could be in the underhood fuse box (power distribution box), or in a separate smaller relay box, often located near the underhood fuse box, or even sometimes under the dash.

To find it, you'll need to:

1. Consult your owner's manual: This is the best place to start. The manual should have a diagram showing the location of all relays and fuses.

2. Check the underhood fuse box: This is the most common location. Look for a diagram on the inside cover of the fuse box. It might list the fuel pump relay by name or show its position by number.

3. Look for a separate relay box: If you don't find it in the main fuse box, look around for a smaller box containing additional relays. This is often found near the main fuse box.

4. Use a wiring diagram: If you can't locate it visually, a wiring diagram for your specific year and model Crown Victoria will be invaluable. You can find these online through automotive repair resources (often for a fee) or possibly at a local auto parts store. The diagram will show the relay's location and the wiring connected to it.

Important Note: Always disconnect the negative battery terminal before working with electrical components to prevent accidental shorts or injury.
