car won't start , turns over we thought it was the fuel pump but when removed and power put to it it pumps fine , have checked the fuel pump shutoff switch no power getting to it , it will make a circut(checked with test light) if power is put to it so it seems to be working. have tried to run down the problem but cant seem to find where the power is stoping . and was told to look for the fuel pump relay but cant locat it . help please .

Answer
Ms. Ginther,

Pop open the hood and you should see a 6"x2" black box on the driver or passenger side under the hood. Open the box and in it should be the fuel pump relay switch. Hope that this helps and if you need further assistance please feel free to contact me further. Good luck.
