Exclamation 92 735il won't start

Hi, yesterday morning I was driving my 92 735il and hit a relatively large bump in the road on the right side. As soon as I hit it the car lost power for about 3 seconds and then shut off. I have tried to get it restarted several times, checked all the fuses under the hood (haven't checked the ones under the seat yet, was snowing). It was running perfect up until that moment, no trouble codes. Is there a fuel pump safety shut off, and if so, where is the switch. I haven't been able to find very much so far. Thanks,

Some models have an accident shutdown switch. This is probably what you are looking for. I wish I knew, OTTOMH. You should be able to Google it.

That was my first thought, but so far I have been unable to find any information on if and where it would be located. If anyone might know, please help. Thanks

Fixed the problem

Problem found, it was the connections leading to the fuel pump relay. Hope this is able to help someone else in the future.
