Try looking on the left rear side of the trunk.

Perhaps I'm not being specific enough. How does one reset the fuel cut off switch?
Chris,
From memory, have a look behind the radio console if fitted, if not have a look in that area up towards the bulkhead. It's a long time since I had a Fiesta but I think that was the location or thereabouts.

Find the switch in the left inside rear above the wheel well, behind an access hatch. If the button has popped out on the switch, push it in to re-latch it. If it's already pushed in, you have another problem.

There is a small plastic hole about the size of a smartie tube to poke your finger down

Alex.
Simply press down on the button.
