I have a 1979 VW Convertible Beetle, Fuel injected.

Where is the fuel pump fuse other than at the fuel pump relay?

I think it may be on the fuel pump under the gas tank at the r front wheel?

The power for the fuel pump comes from the ignition switch then goes to a double relay located behind the rear seat. It has power when the switch is turned on.
