The Ford F-150's fuel cut-off switch may be located underneath the driver's side of the dash, indicated by a red button. Newer F-150 models utilize a module for the same purpose, installed in the frame by the spare tire towards the rear of the truck. The F-150's inertia switch or fuel cut-off button is considered a safety feature, priming the pump to shut off in the event of a collision. A crash severe enough to trigger this response, will stop the flow of fuel to the engine and prevent combustion or fire. Sensors are used to detect a sudden or violent stop, impactful enough to activate the shut-off feature. The F-150's pump can be reactivated by resetting the cut-off button to enable start again.

The inertia switch for a ford f150 is located on the front part of the passenger door, behind the footwell cover, which is underneath the glove box.

The inertia switch it is located under the passenger side door by the kick plate where the fuse panel is it's tucked behind that right up against the fender it has a little plunger on the top if you push that down if you push on it you'll feel whether or not it's been popped up or not but if you push that down if it's been popped up it will reengage it if you look up there with a flashlight you'll see it it's just past the fuse box right up against the fender

For dummies that own Fords or build Fords you should think about people that want to do it themselves and not pay outrageous prices for button or a reset generation switch that isn't there there's six different places you say it's there and it's not

Different models, different production years, different locations. Newer units are computer controlled by restraint modules
