Never saw a cut-off switch on a 94. I'd look at other basic areas for a no-start.. Jerry

its a fuel inertia switch. not 100% sure on a 94 but make sure you don't have any fuel lines that are severly bent. how hard you get hit?

I've been doing some digging and turns out this truck doesnt have a inertia switch. I guess mostly fords have that..
My dad was driving it but he was waiting for someone to turn and someone in a jeep liberty was on a cell phone and didnt see him so she crashed right into him. The spare tire pushed in the tailgate 9"-10", Bumper is into the gas tank, the rear glass is shattered, the body started to buckle mostly on the drivers side. It's screwed...
And BTW, from what my dad told me the jeep was even more messed up than the Blazer...

The accident probably screwed up the fuel pump, and the evap canister. Hence no start.

Look behind the license plate, up under-near the frame rail. Betcha during the crunch the fuel pump plug got wasted but if you take out the bad and put in the good (wiring that is) betcha it'll run..Jerry
