How to Locate the Fuse Box in a 1996 Ford Econoline
by Truell BlissThe position of the fuse box in a 1996 Ford Econoline allows for quick and easy fuse maintenance. Fuses help protect electronic circuits from damaging loads; look for the fuse box if a brake light fails, a head light will not turn on, or when you discover an electronics malfunction. Replace a compromised fuse as soon as you can.
Step 1
Open the door on the driver's side of the van.
Step 2
Move your hand slowly down the steering column toward the floor. Stop when you find a panel on the bottom right of the steering column.
Step 3
Access the fuse box through the lower part of the opening in the steering column.
Warnings
- Sharp tools or instruments can damage fuse box interiors.
