Hello,
My scorpio 2.9 won't start. I read a lot about a fuel switch in the boot. Can somebody tell me (in simple words, i'm from holland) where i can find that switch. Or does somebody have a picture?
Many thanks

In a square hole in the plastic cover just left of the boot lock.

If you listen carefully you should hear the fuel pump start up when you turn it on. Hear it better with the door open maybe. If so it's not that.
The red cut-out switch should only pop out if you have a big impact, e.g. a shunt up the rear from a vehicle following behind

Hi, when you say it wont start, does the engine crank/try to fire? or do you hear nothing when you turn the key?

I've twice had them cut out hitting speed bumps (admittedly going a bit too fast)

Have a lot to answer for them speed bumps!
Like the 'rumble strips' on the approach to roundabouts, don't actually slow anybody down and are just annoying
