* Under the hood in the power distribution box (fuse box): This is the most common location. The power distribution box is typically located near the battery. The relay itself will either be clearly labeled "Fuel Pump" or have a diagram in the box cover showing its location.
* Inside the passenger compartment fuse box: Less common, but possible. This fuse box is usually located under the dash on the driver's side.
To find it definitively:
1. Consult your owner's manual: This is the best place to start. The manual will have a diagram of your fuse and relay boxes showing the location of all components.
2. Check the power distribution box under the hood first: This is the more likely location. Look for a box with several relays and fuses. Examine the cover for a diagram or labels.
3. If not found under the hood, check the interior fuse box: This is a less common location but still possible.
If you can't find it after checking both locations and consulting your owner's manual, a Ford dealership or a qualified mechanic can help you locate it. Remember to always disconnect the negative battery cable before working with electrical components.
