I am trying to locate the fuel pump relay, otherwise known as the circuit opening relay. On another thread, the location was described cryptically as "above the passenger side kick board".

I have located four relays that fit that description. Can someone describe it for me a bit clearer. I will attach pictures of the one on the side of the inner car panel and the set of three that are mounted to the transverse 40mm diameter structural tube above the glove compartment.

Should be the middle one on the dash support bar. Should have 6 pins as per the Toyota Electrical Wiring Diagram manual.

Excellent! Thanks Trent. I will pull it out and check it.

One fellow on a youtube video suggests modifying it with an electrolytic capacity across the points to minimise arcing and subsequent likelyhood of failure.

I think 20+ years is reasonable reliability. If it isn't faulty, it is a waste of time and money replacing it.

Yes I don't want to replace it. I just want to know which one it is in the case of failure, which I have read about in my searching for recent unrelated problems.
