Sorry about the blank post inintially.

I have an '83 Volvo 245 M46 non-turbo.

Today I thought I would try to move the cig lighter to the right of the panel. So I removed the center console and fiddled with the switches and found that first I couldn't easily remove the cig lighter from it's place on the left and there wasn't a double wide place to put it other that the air con. control which is happily living on the right end.

Put it together, thought everything was fine. Then went to start the car hours later and won't start. I have spark at the coil. The exhaust is not very gassy smelling and I noticed that I don't hear my fuel pump cycling on. I am guessing I knocked the wrong wire loose. Can't locate the fuel pump relay. Any ideas on what to look for?

I hope to leave for Las Vegas tomorrow morning, it's a 15 hour drive. I still have preparations besides the car. And I'm getting a little nervous about getting out on time. Gotta trade show to attend.

Best Regards,

Mark.
