This is well detailed and illustrated in the Owners Manual - See "Related Questions" below1995-1998 Reset Button location

The fuel pump inertia switch for a 1998 Ford Windstar is located behind the trim panel by the driver's left foot by the hood release (according to the owners manual)

I just reset mine, and can confirm that the above answer is correct. The switch is just below the hood release. There will be a finger sized hole, accessible vertically. Very easy to see and get to.

1999-2003 Reset Button location

The switch is located inside the jack storage compartment found at the right rear corner of the vehicle. Remove the cover and it is behind the thin "foam" covering inside the compartment towards the rear of the vehicle.

It has a red button on the top of the switch, make sure the button is fully depressed. If it is and the vehicle still won't start check fuel pressure at the rail (there is a port on the rail which is under the hood on the engine) with a fuel pressure gauge. If the pressure is ok (about 30 psi) the problem is most likely not fuel system related.

The emergency fuel pump cutoff switch, also known as the inertia switch, cuts power to the fuel pump in the event of an accident - even a slow speed one - any sudden "jolt" can trigger the switch.

Visit my auto blog at http:/free-auto-repair-advice.blogspot.com In the back, with the hatch open, take off the access cover to the jack (it's on the right side, behind the rear seat). If you snake your finger around the front of the opening, you should feel the reset switch, That's where it is on my '95, and since Ford isn't known for changing their cars much from one decade to the next, I'd presume that's where yours is.

Answer

The button is in the jack compartment in the back...passenger side. Its a red button. If it is not 'triggered' check the fuse under the hood to make sure it is not bad.
