Where is the fuel pump fuse on Oldsmobile silhouette?

The location of the fuel pump fuse in an Oldsmobile Silhouette varies slightly depending on the year of the vehicle. There isn't a single, universally located fuse for the fuel pump; it's often controlled through a relay, and sometimes the relay's power is protected by a fuse.

To find it, you need your vehicle's year. Then:

1. Consult your owner's manual: This is the best place to start. The manual will show you a fuse box diagram and clearly label which fuse (or circuit breaker) protects the fuel pump relay.

2. Check the underhood fuse box: This is the most common location. The cover usually has a diagram printed on it. Look for a fuse labeled "Fuel Pump" or something similar, or look for a relay that's clearly labeled as being associated with the fuel pump or the fuel injection system.

3. Check the interior fuse box (passenger compartment): Some models might have a secondary fuse box inside the car, often located under the dashboard or in the center console. Again, check the diagram on the fuse box cover.

4. If you can't find it: If you've checked both fuse boxes and still can't locate the relevant fuse or relay, you'll need a wiring diagram specific to your Oldsmobile Silhouette's year and model. A mechanic or an online automotive repair database (like AllDataDIY or Mitchell1) can help you locate this information.

Important Note: Working on your car's electrical system can be dangerous. If you're not comfortable working with electricity, it's best to consult a qualified mechanic.
