Owners of other F-Series trucks or other Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles such as the Super Duty F-250, F-350, F-450, Expedition, Explorer, Edge, Escape, E-150, E-250, E-350, Transit Connect, Flex, MKX, MKT, Navigator and Mountaineer may also find these DIY instructions to be helpful.
Assortment boxes of new low profile mini blade fuses in a variety of amperage ratings (E.G. 5, 10, 15, 20) can be bought at various retailers such as Wal-Mart, Pep Boys, Advance Auto Parts or online at Amazon.A white plastic fuse puller tool should be attached to the back of the passenger compartment fuse panel cover.
You can also use a pair of needle nose pliers to remove a fuse.
To open the fuse box cover, press the two buttons on the front and swing open the cover towards the rear of the engine bay.
There is a fuse location diagram on the underside of the cover and also in the owner's manual.
The passenger compartment fuse box is located beneath the right side kick panel in the front passenger foot well. Gently pull off the kick panel to reveal the rectangular fuse box cover.
The white plastic fuse puller tool should be attached to the back side of the interior fuse box cover. There is a fuse location diagram on the back of the cover and also in the owner's manual.
If the white plastic fuse puller tool is missing, you can also use a pair of needle nose pliers to remove a fuse.
If the thin metal strip inside the plastic center part of the fuse appears to be broken, the fuse is "blown" and needs to be replaced.
If the metal bar inside the fuse is intact, the fuse is probably still good. Since new fuses are so inexpensive, it should still be replaced as part of your electrical problem troubleshooting process.
Make sure that the new fuse is the same amperage rating (E.G. 5, 10, 15, 20).
Push the new low profile mini blade fuse straight in to the socket.
Push the passenger foot well kick panel back in to place.
