Can anyone help me find the fuel pump relay in my car? According to the Chilton's electrical diagram of the car there is one on it, but they fail to mention anything regarding its location. Is the fuel pump relay perhaps inside of the control module?

I have checked the inertia switch, verified gas is not going to the engine by removing the line before the gas filter, replaced the pump to my dismay, and made sure the fuse not broke. I have also checked the fuse box underneath the steering wheel, underneath the hold, and also checked underneath the driver's seat with no luck.

Starting to really dislike Ford at this point.

The fuel pump relay is incorporated in the constant control relay module located next to the battery. I would recommend spending the extra money and purchasing it from the dealer instead of the local auto parts store as I learned the hard way.

HEre are some guides to help you test it.

Please let us know what happens.

I have dicovered that I must replace my Fuel Pump Relay or Regulator but I cannot find where its at. I have an general idea of where it is located which is to the left of the battery somewhere on or around the radiator guard. Please assist me with finding the location of this part because my car is unable to run without it.

Thanks

Disconnect battery ground cable, then remove radiator sight shield. Disconnect electrical connector, then remove module from radiator support. Reverse procedure to install.

IF the relay has failed, you will need to replace the relay box.

Ok sir, thanks
I think that was slightly the problem becasue at first no fuel was coming up to the engine. It cranks and seems like it wants to start but it just will not start. I ran out of possible ideas of what the problem could be except the fuel pump, which i do not know where its located at.

The Fuel Pump Relay is part of the Integrated Control Relay Module, is located at the front of the engine compartment, on the upper radiator support. https://www.2carpros.com/kpages/auto_repair_manuals_alldata.htm

There's no listing for the fuel pump relay try the inertia switch at forward of left rear quarter panel above left wheelwell. Jumper it and see what happens.

It may be located in the ccrm black box, located on top of the radiator, under the sight shield.. I don't believe it is serviceable.. there are a couple other items in there also, a\c relay, fan control relay.. unplug the fuel pump connector to the inertia switch, apply 12 volts to the plug, listen for the fuel pump to turn on to confirm pump is good

On earlier Taurus, the ccrm was originally called the integrated controller module, not sure when they changed names
