toytrkdrvr Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 Pushing the switch resets the contacts. It works like a circuit breaker. IF the car restarts for you without pushing the switch I doubt thats your problem. PURPOSE The inertia switch is used to shut the fuel pump "OFF" in the event of a collision. OPERATION When a sharp impact occurs, the ball breaks loose from the magnet, rolls up a conical ramp and strikes a target plate. This opens the electrical contacts of the switch and disrupts power to the electric fuel pump. The engine will quit running within a few seconds after the fuel pump looses power. The inertia switch must then be manually reset before the engine can be restarted. CONSTRUCTION The inertia switch consists of a steel ball held in place by a magnet. WARNING: DO NOT reset the inertia switch button if you see or smell fuel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BASS14 Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Sounds like your pumps starting to act up, in your trunk drivers side theres a switch for the cutout, try pressing that and see if the light goes out, i doubt thats going to fix your problem but the light should be taking care of. ahhh great, yeah i just love this piece of shit rofl. what will pushing the switch do? have any idea where it is? would it be on the side under the plastic housing or under the carped by the wheel well? thanks see where it is now......
