2G Fuel pump rewire question

[96talonchick]

My AWD came with the rewire already done however, I am trying to figure out where most people put the relay. I will be using the rear seat often and was told I needed to move the relay from it's current location, mounted off the fuel pump plate.

My relay is mounted behind one of the plastic panels in the back, close to the tank but your a 2g so the pump is under the seat. The relay won't care where it is, but you do want to keep the wire that goes to the pump as reasonably short as you can. It is just a switch that gives the pump full battery voltage and I don't see it dropping much if you were to mount it a foot or two away. My .02

Yeah, I mounted mine in the same location. Lower rear passenger side trim panel. Plenty of room there and easy to get the wires routed.

x2 for me as well. Behind the plastic panel. I actually used the same white plastic piece that holds the loom in place that runs to the fuel pump hangar assembly to neatly run it in that direction.

Can anyone by chance post pictures? And the wires are currently included with the white wire protector. I just need to know where the best spot to put the relay is. Also out of the way of the plastic panel.

Thank you! That's where I was suspecting it to go but wasn't 100% sure.

I was running two pumps with a latching circuit.

Do you have a relocated battery? Looking for options on routing the cable to my trunk too
