Default Starter Relay Fuse Location (93 Mustang 5.0)

I inserted my battery in backwards which caused a popping sound and some smoke. I installed battery correctly and so far my lights, locks, door chime, etc... work but my car will not start. Went to local auto parts store and they stated that the starter relay fuse is blown and will have to be replaced.

Problem: I have no idea where the fuse is located.

Anybody's assistance is greatly appreciated.

OH you know what, thats a 93 it has a fusable link in the wire between the ignition switch and the starter relay. Pretty sure you have to trace that small wire on the relay bact to the ignition switch, Im not real sure where its at

On my car, all my fuseable links are within​ 6 inches of the starter relay.

Good luck....
