Ford's have a solenoid and they are normally mounted on the fender well near the battery. It will have the pos. + cable from the batt. running straight to one side.

SOURCE: F150 Ford 1998 is there a fuse for a trailer and

There are a few fuses for the trailer tow adapter.

1st, is theodd location on the 97-98, engine mini fuse panel has a 20 A fuse forthe stop / turn lamps. Have seen it covered in tape from the factory onsome 97-98 MY trucks.
This is on page 142 in the owners 1997 manual, all the revisions for the 1998 owners manual I have seen do not include this fuse box for some reason.

Download a PDF version from Ford, for the 1997 MY at :

https://www.fleet.ford.com/maintenance/owners_manuals/default.asp

This is a picture of the Power Distribution Box, additional relay box and engine mini fuse panel with the covers off. The 20A in the upper right panel with the red base, is the trailer stop/turn fuse.

The others :
1. Power Distribution Panel / engine compartment fuse panel
Fuse #1 - Trailer tow back-up and tail lamps
Fuse #16 - Trailer tow battery charge and stop/turn lamps
Fuse #28 - Trailer tow electronic brake

2. Instrument Panel Fuses ( cab fuse panel by hood release )
#23 - trailer tow battery charge relay

Testimonial: "Thank you, thank you, thank you it was the 20 amp fuse. The lights now work! "

SOURCE: 1998 Ford F150. windshield wipers,interior

check to see if you have corrosion in the fuse box or the GEM module, by removing the fuse box completely, disconnect the battery, take out the two screws and two 8mm bolts that hold the fuse box in, it will take some maneuvering to get it positioned right to disconnect the two wiring harnesses from the fuse box, they are bolted through the middle. Once removed, take the GEM module off the back of the fuse box and look for what would be something like the same corrosion you would see on your battery posts, usually one of these components is corroded and causing the problem, my buddy got a replacement fuse box for his from a wrecking yard for only 15 dollars, with all the fuses and relays. If you have this corrosion, then you probably have a windshield leak at the lower left hand corner of the windshield, it lets water drip onto the fuse box and GEM module. Hope this helps, let me know

Testimonial: "Mr. Guru, It was the GEM module. Thank you for helping with my problem. "

SOURCE: fuel pump relay location 1999 ford F150

Engine Compartment fuse panel ( driver's side fender ) relay 301. Layout with numbers should be on the lid ( numbers only, not the functions ).

If you did not get an owners manual with your truck ( purchased used / lost ), you can download one from Ford in PDF format:
https://www.fleet.ford.com/maintenance/owners_manuals/default.asp

Makes it real quick to search for keywords.

Where are the relays located on a 1989 ford f150 5.0

In a 1989 Ford F150 5.0, the location of the relays can vary depending on the specific model and trim level of the truck. However, in most cases, the relays are located in the engine compartment's power distribution box, which is usually located near the battery.
To locate the power distribution box, open the hood of your F150 and look for a black plastic box with a removable cover. The cover may have a diagram or label that indicates which relay controls which electrical system. In some cases, the relays may also be located in a separate relay box near the power distribution box.
If you're having trouble locating the relays, consult your F150 owner's manual, which should have detailed information about the vehicle's electrical systems and component locations. If you're still having difficulty finding the relays, it may be best to consult a qualified mechanic or Ford dealership for assistance.

1988 ford f 150 suddenly no power to fuel pumps

Hi Don,
your fuel pump is supplied voltage from the fuel pump relay which is supplied voltage from the EEC power relay ( fuel pump relay-Green Base, EEC power relay has a Brown Base) usually located on the left side(drivers side) of the engine compartment. These relays are supplied voltage from the fuse links at the starter solenoid on the firewall near the Battery, I hope this Helps Don!

1998 ford f150 doesnt have signal for starter solenoid and ignition switch is new

Using a jumper wire, connect the S. terminal on the starter relay to the battery connection on the relay. the starter should engage. if it does not, your problem is between the starter relay and the starter itself. if it does engage, check your neutral safety switch if you have an automatic , or your clutch pedal switch if you have a standard shift.
