Default Saff Cosworth 4x4 fuel pump relay

Does anybody know where it is???
My saff wont start, the starter motor sometimes sticks so i towed it round and round and it wouldnt bump this time, once i turned the radio off i realised the fuel pump isnt priming, when you put a seperate power source straight to the live terminal the pump comes to life thou!
Also after towing it round i took the plugs out and they are all dry, so i want to find the fuse and relay so i can check them but my wiring diagram is different to whats actually in the fuse box.
Im going to put a wire to the starter as well to see if it is sparking, if it aint im assuming the immobiliser is fooked, but it locks and unlocks ok, and when i press the anti hijack button on remote it goes off as it should.
Is givin me the arse ache now LOL.
Any help or ideas welcome, thanks for looking....

They should be a few relays clipped on the bottom of the passenger side dash. There are 2 yellow relays 1 is for the engine ecu and the other is for the fuel pump.

on a 4x4 cosworth

the fuel pump inertia cut off switch is in the drivers floor kick panel.. you need a posi drive screwdriver to undo it and reset it

ponder why ford thought.yes heres the reset button.but you need a screwdriver to get to it

no words needed

On the early versions yes, on the later ones they are in the footwell.

If its located in the spare wheel it could get rusty inside so ift nothing else works try bypassing it with some wires just to check if its the culprit or not.
