Post fuel pump failure

I just replaced my fuel pump and can not get the engine to start. The engine turns over but does not run. Where can I find the fuel pump reset switch?

more info needed...vehicle...year....etc

if you replaced fuel pump could be a number of issues...

I would first check that you are getting fuel up at intake/carb..etc

if its carb....then pull fuel line and turn ignition off and on a couple times to see if pump pushes out fuel...

if its injection...you need to pull line off of fuel rail...or pull injector to check for fuel (be careful if your injector/fuel rail components are plastic so you don't beak anything)

if no fuel..then could be plugged filter..perhaps vapor lock...or power issue going to pump...get down by pump and have someone turn ignition on and off a couple times...you should hear it kick on....

there is no "reset" usually unless you have alarm system that targets pump...

Default Fuel switch

Hi
The the inertia fuel shut off-reset switch is where the jack storage compartment is in the liftgate storage area on the right. It is covered by a white plasticy foam cover just enough so you can push it back into its place, pull it toward you then push the red button down. Hope this helps!

when you put the fuel tank back up you might of pinched a fuel line check for pressure at the fuel rail...
