2002 Explorer Fuse Diagram for Battery Junction Box/Power Distribution Box
The power distribution box is located in the engine compartment on the driver’s side. Find it near the firewall next to the master cylinder and wiper motor. The power distribution box contains high-current fuses that protect your vehicle’s main electrical systems from overloads.
How to find your fuse and the devices served by that fuse
There are 63 fuse/relay slots in the Battery Junction Box. The chart shows only 10 to speed up load time. Here’s how to find the fuse and circuit you want.
1) Change the number of entries showing (in the Show Entries Box) to 100 and scroll the list.
2) Enter the name of the component you’re searching for in the Search box.
3) Use the Next/Previous buttons at the bottom of the table
