So I have a 2002 mustang. Other day it was raining and I slid into a little pole barely a dent. Car started stalling and finally died. Had new fuel pump installed and fuses changed out. It’s finally cranking up but now won’t turn off and smoke is coming from under drivers seat. Any ideas

Just wondering. Did you check and reset the IFS switch in the trunk? The IFS switch is supposed to cut off the fuel pump after an "impact"?

Exactly WHICH fuses were blown using the following numbering scheme:

1999-2004 MY fuse panel schedule:

If this were my car I would be performing a visual inspection under the car and through the door sill looking for any possible wiring harness damage.

It was the 20’s on fuse. Wiring is burning, tracing throughout car towards the trunk. Any idea what could cause that. And yes fuel switch was reset
