Discover the fuse box and relay locations for the Ford E-150, E-250, E-350, and E-450 (1997-2001) with detailed diagrams. Essential for maintaining electrical systems.

The Ford E-Series (E-150, E-250, E-350, E-450) from 1997 to 2001 is a lineup of full-size vans designed for utility, versatility, and durability. These vehicles are available in multiple configurations, including cargo vans for commercial use and passenger vans capable of seating up to 15 occupants. With their spacious interiors and robust build, the E-Series models are ideal for transporting goods, people, or customizing for specialized purposes such as camper conversions.

The electrical systems in these vans rely heavily on the fuse box and relays for proper functionality. The main fuse box is located under the dashboard on the driver’s side, while the power distribution box, housing most relays, is found in the engine compartment. These components protect and control critical systems such as the lights, air conditioning, ignition, and fuel pump. Ensuring the fuses and relays are in good condition is vital to maintaining the reliability of these systems.

WARNING

  • Never replace a fuse with one that has a higher amperage rating.
  • A fuse with a too-high amperage could damage the electrical part and cause a fire.
  • On no account should fuses be repaired (e.g. patched up with tin foil or wire) as this may cause serious damage elsewhere in the electrical circuit or cause a fire.
  • If a fuse blows repeatedly, do not keep replacing it. Instead, have the cause for the repeated short circuit or overload tracked and fixed.
  • Terminal and harness assignments for individual connectors will vary depending on vehicle equipment level, model, and market.
