Where do you find fuel pump relay on a 1995 toyota tacoma

Check for a spark first, double check fuel pump is running and actually "hums" when you prime the motor. Check fuel filter, clogged fuel filter could be the culprit and explain why it sputterred with starter fluid but wont run without. Good luck.

Open the hood and look for the engine control fuse box. On the inside of lid it should tell you which one is the fuel pump relay.

Check the following:
- Listen to the fuel pump noise under the fuel tank.
- Starter signal.
- EFI relay, under the hood fuse and relay box.
- Fuel pump operation and pressure.
- Regulating valve.
- Circuit Opening Relay (COR) under the dash.
- Check for open in harness and connector between circuit opening relay and fuel pump, and fuel pump and body ground





Hope that works. Thank you for visiting Fixya.

• The fuel pump relay is a pain to find so when I tell you where it is keep looking in that area until you locate it because it is there.

• Your fuel pump relay is located to the left of the steering column behind the top of the lower dash access panel. There is a metal tube of sorts wayyy back there and even if you take the lower panel off it is a pain to get to but it is back there.

• You can also pull the fuel line off the backside of the fuel filter and see if gas is making it to fuel filter as well. Keep in mind that if the relay happens to be good that a bad fuel pump will also effect the fuel gauge.

• If you have any comments please feel free to leave them here.

timing belt?

Look to see if you have power at pin 1 of the circuit opening relay. The C.O. Relay is what powers the fuel pump. If you have power there (a blue wire), you have an open circuit between the relay and the pump.

change it when it fails...Or if pressure drop causes problems associated with imminent failure.

check fuel injector fuses.

Check for fuel pressure when starting. Fuel pumps have a check valve in them that keep fuel in the rail at the injectors. If the check valve fails, the pump has to pump fuel all of the way up to the engine. Same thing with hot no-restarts. Fuel pump.

No power to the fuel pump is a common issue with Toyota Trucks. More than likely, the power wire at the top of the fuel tank sending unit is rusted off. If this is the case, you either need to drop the tank, or remove the bed to replace the sending unit assembly. I have done it both ways, but have found that removing the bed is easier than dropping the tank.
