Where is the fuel pump shut off switch located on a 97 ford explorer?

There isn't a readily accessible fuel pump shut-off switch on a 1997 Ford Explorer like you might find in some other vehicles. The fuel system is controlled electronically, and disabling the pump usually requires disconnecting the fuel pump relay or fuse. These are located under the hood in the fuse box. However, locating and disconnecting these components requires some mechanical knowledge and should only be done by someone familiar with car repair. Improperly working with these parts could be dangerous.
