Ford makes no reference to a BCM in either their owners manual shop manuals or parts manuals

The owners manual calls the fuse box a fuse box
The service manuals call the fuse box a SMART JUNCTION BOX
The parts manual refer to the fuse box as a fuse panel
I have yet to see the fuse box referred to as a BCM in any Ford Manuals

Ford does not use a BCM in any 1st or 2nd gen. expeditions and I would almost bet in none of the 3rd gen expys although that I am not 100% sure of the 3rd gens.

What you refer to as a BCM being behind the fuse box is also wrong. However there is a VSM Vehicle Security Module (NKA a BCM) mounted above the Smart Junction Box AKA fuse box (NKA a BCM)

NKA=NOT KNOWN AS

When you find it let's us know. I looked at 2 different vendor wiring diagrams and none state it having a bcm on the diagrams.

If you are looking for the module that controls the auto ac it is located in the center of the dash and called the EATC module.

By the way eatc stands for electronic air/ temperature/ control module. Listen to these guys, ones a automotive teacher, the other is just damn smart! They know what they preach.

Close, I teach intro electrical in the Heavy Diesel Program at a local tech College. I jokingly tell the students we deal with diesel electrons not automotive electrons... and some believe it.

You want to really mess with them, have them find the turbocharger and diagnose it on a non turbo cummins, or ford diesel.

Way ahead of you. Cat skid steer, non turbo and I have them searching for it.
I also get a few of them with the 710 cap on the valve cover.

The basic electrical blows their minds. Got to love Millennials.

Back in the day we'd have the newest kid look up parts for an air cooled vw bug. Say ah, can you get me a radiator and thermostat for that 74 super beetle were working on out front!

The third gens reference a BCM when you look up the software using the OBDII connector and FORScan there are a number of entries that reference software codes for lights, alarms, horn honks, and the battery monitor system. Where it is located, I have no idea.
