Where is the fuel pump on a 1999 Mazda Protege?
My car won’t start and I think it might be a fuel pump problem. Where is the fuel pump located on a 1999 Mazda Protege?

The fuel pump relay for a 1999 Mazda Protege is found in the fuse box under the hood of your car. The fuel pump relay sends power to your fuel pump which allows the pump to send fuel to the engine. If your fuel pump relay is faulty, your engine will crank but won’t start due to a lack of fuel.
An engine that won’t start could be a sign of other problems. It could mean the fuel pump is not working properly or it could mean the spark plugs are bad. Other possibilities include dirty fuel injectors, a wonky crankshaft sensor, or poor compression.
