I was in a small fender bender in January, rear end kicked out on some ice and bumped another car, minor damage but right after my 2001 LS acted like it wasn't getting fuel. I checked the inertia switch on the drivers side, it wasn't tripped. Am I missing a second switch? (I know it has 2 fuel pumps)


Thanks

The switch may be partially engaged. Give it a good whack with a rubber mallet to trip the switch fully. Then reset and see what happens. I would do this with the engine running to make sure the switch was tripped.

So there is only the one inertia switch? (Located in the drivers side kick panel)

Thanks!!
