Long story short I need to replace the central junction box (fuse block) under the steering column in my 2002. Who knows how to decifer the part number on it to check compatibility online?
I've found quite a few fuse blocks on eBay with similar but not exact part numbers.

So far I've been unsuccessful and finding a close match reman.

Below is my part. The closest match I have found has the underlined different, everything else being the same.

Why do you have to Replace the whole fuse box?

 

[SBMech]

That's not the part number .... the part number in that pic is 2C7T-14A067-AN.

Here's one on fleabay : https://www.ebay.com/p/1424678394

There might be supercessions if it's a new/updated model, I would go with a reman one myself, fixed the problem in them...you hope..

They go bad internally, the boards crack, you get door open warnings etc. In those years they are the BCM as well.

Water came in from a leaky windshield. Both sides of this connection melted beyond repair.

How many wires are in that connector? Maybe just by-pass it?

I swapped a new connector from a doner truck, I believe it was 11 wires total.

I used one form a fleabay vendor like you recommended, a seller out of Van Nuys for anyone who needs a recommendation. For $300 we're back on the road again

It's pretty common to get a windshield leak in these old beasts…they are over 20 years old now. This guy has some great videos on the 7.3…lot of good info.
