Default 2009 santa fe no start

Put SUV 2009 santa fe on hoist for minor repairs. Hasn't started since! Turns over real good. Was told to check for fuel cut off switch and reset. Can't find it!! Do I have one and where would I find it if I do?

If I only had a crystal ball,,,,,,,,
If all was OK before you did the "minor" repairs and after that ,,well .

Can we ask what the minor repairs were?

The black plastic box in front of the gas tank was trying to fall down so I rigged up a gas tank strap actually to hold it up, carefully zapped a couple of screws in.

Not actually being there to see everything,
What are your thoughts regarding , undoing what you did and see if the problem is still present?
Could something have happened to cause a fuse for the fuel system to blow? Check all the fuses?
Is it still on the hoist?

We only raised the box 3/4 of inch so unless one of the connections is bad I can't see it being a problem!! Took it off the hoist yesterday to roll it back to open the doors to look for the fuel cut off reset. Can you tell me if it actually has a fuel cut off or not and where it is?? I'm going back today and swap the fuel pump relay for the horn relay because there is no pump noise at all and I had my ear beside the gas tank! I will do a compression test to hopefully eliminate the timing belt as the problem!

I would check the fuses first because if the fuse for the fuel pump is open, you could be going thru a lot of trouble thinking a relay was defective when all the while it is getting no power. What do you think ?

Sorry I did check the fuse and it's good. Wasn't sure how to test relay. Swapping with a known good one is a good idea. Will anybody tell me if this SUV has a fuel cut off switch?
