* Near the battery: This is the most common location. Look closely around the battery for a small metal box or a panel with fuses clearly visible.
* On the firewall: Sometimes the fuse box is mounted directly to the firewall, possibly near the driver's side.
There isn't a single universally agreed-upon position. Your best bet is to:
1. Consult your owner's manual: If you have the original manual, it should clearly show the fuse box location.
2. Look carefully under the hood: Systematically examine the area around the battery and the firewall. The fuse box might be somewhat hidden.
3. Search online: Search for "1972 Jeep Wagoneer fuse box location" along with images. Comparing pictures from different owners might help you locate it on your vehicle.
Remember to be cautious when working around the battery. Disconnect the negative terminal if you're doing any work near it to avoid electrical shock.
