Hi:
I'm not aware of a button, but the fuel pump inertia switch is located in the right front passenger area. You will find it in the right front corner, mounted on the toe board, just beside the right front kick panel.

I think the fuel pump shut off switch was triggered while driving down our super bumpy full of potholes drive way. It turns over but will not start. The problem is, I don't know what this switch looks like. I kind of have an idea of where it is but can't find it.
Can you show me what it looks like and where to find it

Hello, I'm Danny.

Yes, the inertia switch is located in the right kick panel. I've attached a picture below. To reset the switch use a finger to depress the button. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
