Your best bet is to consult your owner's manual (if you have one) or a wiring diagram specifically for your year, make, and model. A Haynes or Chilton repair manual for that year Camaro will also have this information.
However, common areas to check include:
* Under the hood, in the fuse box: This is the most likely location. The fuse box may be near the battery or in another location under the hood. Look for a relay that's labeled, or trace wires from the fuel pump to find where they connect to a relay.
* Under the dash: Less common but possible, particularly if there's a separate relay center under the dash.
* Inside the car, near the fuse box: Again, less likely, but possible.
Troubleshooting tips:
Since you're looking for the fuel pump relay because you suspect a problem, it's often easier to trace the circuit rather than hunting for an unmarked relay:
1. Listen for the fuel pump: Turn the key to the "ON" position (without cranking the engine). You should hear the fuel pump prime for a few seconds. If you don't hear it, that's where your investigation should start.
2. Check the fuel pump fuse: If the fuel pump doesn't prime, check the relevant fuse first (also often located in the underhood fuse box). A blown fuse is simpler to fix than a relay issue.
3. Check the fuel pump itself: A faulty fuel pump is another possibility. While this requires more access and is further down the troubleshooting process, it's worth noting.
Remember to disconnect the negative battery terminal before working with any electrical components. Always use caution when working under the hood and around electrical systems.
