Fuel pump reset in 1995 900 SE convertible?

I recently hit a pothole at about 45 mph and the car stalled immediately. I could not start it after that -- I also tried pop starting it as I was coasting, but that did not work either. The iginition was cranking fine, but it would not catch.
I have heard that cars will often have a fuel pump shutoff mechanism, so that if you get in an accident your car will not continue to pump fuel onto what could be an explosive situation. It seems possible that the pothole impact "fooled" my car into thinking I had been in an accident, and the fuel pump shut off. I could not find any mention of this in the owners manual, but I'm hoping there is a simple "reset" button that I can press, instead of paying a mechanic to press said button. I've searched the forum here and saw a couple postings that lead me to believe the button does exist, but they did not really identify its location. Does anyone know if this button exists and where to find it? The car is a 1995 900 SE convertible.
From searching posts in this forum, I've also read that I might want to try disconnecting the battery for a mintue or two. If I cannot find the reset button, that will be my back-up plan.
Thanks for any help,
Jason
