Fuel pump relay

Hi, I have a 1982 280zx, and when I try cranking the engine it doesnt full turn over. Ive diagnosed it enough to know its related to the fuel pump so I wanted to check the relay to see if its bad. However, siced i recieved the car used I have no clue where the relay is. Can anyone tell me where I could find it?

It's a bove the ECU in the driver kick panel and I am talking about the Fuel pump control.Also If you need one just let me know......You will not miss it,it's a silver box with an orange sticker on it....

^^^ To clarify...

The FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULE is for the TURBO model only. It is located above the ecu.

The FUEL PUMP RELAY (both n/a and turbo) is located at the a-pillar, on the right of the glove box. It is the only GREEN relay in that area.

Please download the FSM for free from www.xenons130.com/reference

^ Take the passenger side kick panel off, and it should be above the fuse box. There are a few relays in there. But it shouldn't be hard to find, considering it is green. Good luck man.

It is way up there though. Might be easier to pull the glove box....

Alright thanks guys for the help. Just had the time today to look at the car turns out the relay was fine but the pump itself somehow got seized up. After I got that situated seems to be running quite well
