Hello. That fuse is in one of two places; in the main fuse box on the driver side in the cab or on the left front inner fender. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

You've not identified the truck model or year.. Some trucks had after market installations of auxiliary tanks. The Ford 150 with dual tanks had pumps in both tanks. Some suggest dual tanks were always quirky, problematic. However, dependent upon the year, the pumps might be located in the tanks OR the pump might be on the engine. Newer trucks with fuel injection actually had three pumps. The newest have a pressure pump in the front tank and a balance pump in the rear. Some switches affect only the guage. P haps one of the forums below can help when you supply more detail.

Replace the fuel deliver valve, it is under the truck on the drivers side, it is a black plastic canister with lots of plastic lines going in and out of it. If you find this is the problem disconnect one line at a time, don't take everything off at once and mix them up.

You just have a ground problem between the frame and tank ground. It has to be connected to a clean tab on the tank at the fuel sending unit. Check and clean them, both tanks. It gets confused and don't know what to do without a complete circuit.

if neither tank is working check the selector switch it is responsible for energizing both fuel pumps depending on the selection, if you have power to switch and power leaving switch than either its lost on the way to the fuel pump or the pump is bad in this case both?to confirm you must check for power at the pump, easiest is the front tank.

You are right. There are three pumps. It sounds like the transfer pump in the front tank is bad. The in tank pumps just supply the high pressure pump to keep it primed. You need the front pump.

A FORD EQUIPED WITH DUAL TANKS THIS YEAR MODEL HAS CHECK VALVES IN THE FUEL PUMPS .THE FUEL RUNS FROM THE REAR TANK WHEN IT IS POWERED ON TO A TEE AND INTO THE SAME LINE AS THE FRONT PUMP . THE PROBLEM IS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE FRONT FUEL PUMP THERE IS A CHECK VALVE ON THE FOOT AND IT IS NOT WORKING.WHILE THE TRUCK IS RUNNING WITH THE REAR FUEL PUMP ON IT IS PUMPING FUEL INTO THE FRONT TANK . IT WILL RUN OUT OF THE NECK WHEN IT IS FULL.THE FIX IS SIMPLE REPLACE THE FRONT FUEL PUMP. THEY DONT MAKE A CHECK VALVE REPLACEMENT I CHECKED I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AS YOU.
