Where is the fuel pump relay on a 1993 Buick Skylark?

The fuel pump relay location on a 1993 Buick Skylark isn't standardized across all models and trim levels. It's usually found in one of these places, but you'll need to consult your owner's manual or a wiring diagram specific to your car's engine (e.g., 2.3L, 3.1L, 3.3L, or 3.8L) to be certain:

* Under the hood in the fuse box: This is the most common location. The fuse box is usually located near the battery. Look for a relay labeled "Fuel Pump" or one that has a schematic that depicts a fuel pump.

* Inside the passenger compartment fuse box (under the dash): Less common, but possible on some Skylarks.

To find the relay definitively:

1. Consult your owner's manual: This is the best place to start. The manual should have a diagram showing the fuse and relay box layouts.

2. Use a wiring diagram: A wiring diagram specific to your Skylark's year, engine, and trim level will pinpoint the fuel pump relay. You can often find these diagrams online through automotive repair websites or forums (like www.autozone.com, for example).

3. Visually inspect the fuse boxes: Carefully examine both fuse boxes (underhood and under dash, if present) and look for a relay that might be labeled or that matches a fuel pump symbol in the diagram.

Important Note: Before working on any electrical components, disconnect the negative terminal of your battery to avoid electrical shock or damage.
