Fuel Pump Relay Wire Location Under Dash
Could someone please let me know where the fuel pump wire is located under the dash on a 1989 Firebird? I know where it is located on the C100 but I am looking to tap into it for my LS PSI harness
Thanks Rich

Re: Fuel Pump Relay Wire Location Under Dash
Which wire are you talking about. The one that switches the relay, or the one that powers the pump?

Re: Fuel Pump Relay Wire Location Under Dash
AI OverviewOn a 1989 Firebird, the main fuel pump relay is generally located in the engine compartment, but the wiring passes through the cabin, often passing over the driver's side kick panel area. However, for diagnostic purposes, the prime connector is usually located under the hood.
- Fuel Pump Relay: Located on the driver's side or passenger side of the firewall/inner fender, often mounted near the brake booster. It is a 5-way connector with a red wire (power out), green/white wire (ECM), and orange wire (power in).
- Fuel Pump Prime Connector (Diagnostic): A single red wire or connector, usually found hanging near the diagnostic connector or near the fuel pump relay in the engine bay. Applying 12V+ to this connector will directly prime the fuel pump.
- Wiring Path: The fuel pump harness runs along the driver's side rocker panel inside the car, moving toward the back seat.
