Ok. I have my fuel pump wired to a switch so that I can start my engine because when I got the car the guy said the relay was fried.. So I was just wondering... where the hell it was. If you guys could help me that would be really great. Also it's a 1990 RX-7.. so it's an S5. Thanks.

No. It's an actual relay. Not a fuse. It's kind of hard to describe what it looks like. Except like a cube with a yellow connector.

Under the dash? A Fuel Pump Relay? That's a really weird place. But I'll check. Thanks.

the fuel pump relay in question is not under the dash its behind the right head light, looks like a headlight resistor. its under the steel cover right next to the radiator bolted to the coar suport right behind the right headlamp. i know its an odd spot but that is where it is. its the F-60 conector, a white 6 wire plug goes to it.



now i hope this helps and ends the confusion.

thats the resistor relay, it switches the resistor (and fuel pump voltage) from 12v to 9v, the circuit opening relay is the one that switches the pump on and off, its labeled confusingly
