Best Answer

If you see " fuel reset " in your dash :

That means that the fuel pump inertia switch ( shut off switch ) has been

" tripped " and needs to be reset manually

It is a safety device that " breaks " the electrical circuit to the ELECTRIC

fuel pump so that no power is going to the fuel pump

It is supposed to happen if the vehicle suffers a significant jolt , like being in a

collision or maybe hitting a really bad pothole

Where is the fuel reset button on a 1995 Ford Mustang 6 cylinder?

I have a 2001 Mustang GT and my fuel pump reset button is located in the trunk next to the left rear taillight. This button is tripped when the car gets hit or jolted to prevent gas from continuing to be pumped from the fuel tank in the event of an accident. Mine is a black box with a red button on the top. If it's already depressed then there's no need to reset. The fuel reset button was located in the same place as Jim Miller's 2001 Mustang. Mine is a 1987 Mustang.
