Default Mercedes 420SEL - 1989, no fuel?



Hit a big bump, and now the car will crank and crank, but will get no fuel.</P>


Is this as easy as switching an inertia switch? Some sort of fuel cutoff?</P>


</P>


Thanks</P>

Hi; fuel pump assemblyis located inboard of the right-rear wheel, has a plastic shield on the forward side and is mounted with rubber flex elements to keep the sounds out of the body structure and shield the assembly from some of the road vibration. It is possible something hit the shield and broke a wire, or the bump itself broke a wire or shook a wire terminal loose. there are 2 pumps, exactly alike, and each pump has two wires, with the terminals covered by little flexible rubber seals. If nothing is wrong here, check fuse and pump relay.</P>
