Are you sure there is one? There isn't one shown in the wiring diagram for your car:-

What has caused you to go looking for it?

It had 6 extra quarts of oil put in it. It will crank but won’t turn over. Oil has been drained. Coils and plugs pulled, all clean and dry in there, new ones put in. Still won’t turn over. So we are thinking there has to be a reset button somewhere...

By "turn over" do you mean start? Crank/turn over is the same thing. I ask as it makes a difference as to what you would do next to diagnose.

Also, 6 quarts extra doesn't make sense. It shouldn't take that much from empty. If you give me the full story of what's happened I will be more likely to be able to help.

It won’t actually start like engine won’t run. But it does crank.

My EX Husband is the devil and he over filled it by 6 quarts. Probably on purpose.

It would be an expensive way to sabotage a car, probably best to assume he's just not a great mechanic.

Got you. I would suggest buying a can of easy start. Spray it in the intake when starting. If it then starts it is definitely a fuelling issue.

Yes well either way I still need to fix it. It’s my 17 yr old Boys car. ❤

Thank you!! I will give it a shot!!
