Checking and Replacing Fuses in Ford Explorer

If electrical components in the vehicle are not working, a fuse may have blown. Blown fuses are identified by a broken wire within the fuse. Check the appropriate fuses before replacing any electrical components. To remove a fuse use the fuse puller tool provided on the fuse panel box.

Caution!

  • Always replace a fuse with one that has the specified amperage rating. Using a fuse with a higher amperage rating can cause severe wire damage and could start a fire.
  • Always disconnect the battery before servicing high current fuses.
  • To reduce risk of electrical shock, always replace the cover to the Power Distribution Box before reconnecting the battery or refilling fluid reservoirs.

Location of Fuse Boxes

Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel:
The fuse panel is located below the instrument panel on the driver’s side.

Relays:
The following relays are located on either side of the passenger compartment fuse panel. See your authorized dealer for service of these relays.

Power Distribution Box:
The power distribution box is located in the engine compartment. The power distribution box contains high-current fuses that protect your vehicle’s main electrical systems from overloads.
