* Under the Dash: This is the most common location. Look for a small, black box with several wires connected. It might be near the fuse box or other electrical components under the dash.
* In the Fuse Box (under the hood): Some models might have the flasher relay housed within the under-hood fuse box. Check your owner's manual or a fuse box diagram for identification.
To find the exact location and part number:
1. Consult your owner's manual: This is the best resource. It will have diagrams of your vehicle's fuse box and relay locations.
2. Check online Ford parts websites: Enter your vehicle's VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) on sites like FordParts.com or other reputable online Ford parts retailers. This will give you the most accurate part number for your specific truck.
3. Look for markings on the relay itself: Once you locate a potential relay, look for markings that might identify it as the turn signal flasher.
Without the exact part number from your manual or VIN search, it's difficult to give you a specific part number. But any auto parts store (AutoZone, Advance Auto, NAPA, etc.) can assist if you provide them with your vehicle's year, make, and model. They can look up the correct flasher relay for you.
Remember to always disconnect the negative battery terminal before working with electrical components.
