Has anyone had any luck finding the INTERIOR FUSE PANEL on the 2025 Expedition?

Has anyone had any luck finding the INTERIOR FUSE PANEL? The Ford Video shows and also states that "The fuse box is located behind the passenger side cowl side trim panel", but obviously, I'm not smart enough to find it....

Just google up "2025 Ford Expedition fuse panel" and the info comes up...... its behind the lower passenger side kick panel....

There is no access door like there was before. From where ford shows (See Image), I would have to pull up the carpet. I have looked behind the glovebox, and it's not there. One would have to remove the glovebox, remove side trim and take out the kick panel for where you say it might be. That is not accessible for the average driver, and I'm a retired mechanic. This is FORD's Picture from their video

From google info via posts on this site in the past, take the floor mats out and the lower right kick panel can/should rotate giving access to the fuses.

No way to do that.. I'm telling you that there is NO access panel for where you are saying there is. You definitely don't have the 2025 model!

 

[Grrumpy]

No, mine is a 2019....and the info indicates mine is in the same spot.....

 

[LCField]

I rest my case. I had the 2019, and the 2021, and Now the 2025, and I'm telling you that you don't know what I'm dealing with here so PLEASE quit responding!

Read page 376 of your 2025 owners manual.......
You don't even have to READ !!!! There's PICTURES !!!!

Wow, I see what you mean. I can't believe that Ford would place the fuse box under the interior trim like this. That kick panel doesn't have an access door. The door sill plate up and the weather stripping all has to be pulled away from the panel to gain access to that box. I have the tools to do this, but the everyday driver does not. They are trying to make it certain that only Ford techs perform what used to be everyday normal stuff. Wow!

Glad you got it worked out....
Next time someone tries to help you, you might want to give them a thanks instead of telling them to stop responding when they're trying to help.

You are correct! But folks get real frustrated and lash out. You handled it well.

 

[LCField]

Will do! My apologies, I didn't handle that correctly. I got a little frustrated and I should have looked in the manual before I went to the forum. I do appreciate your help and I stand corrected. I still can't see Ford placing the fuse panel without an access door.

I can see Ford putting it there. They are probably concerned about folks who haven't a clue messing around. Or, they don't care how difficult the end product is to service.

Hey Grrumpy, I'm sorry again that we got off to a bad start, and again I apologize for that! I went out of town this weekend and returned this morning. I started installing my Dash Cam, and Radar Detector VIA Hard Wired that I removed from my 2021 before I traded it for this 2025. The Dash Cam has a wiring harness Adapter to connect into the Rain Fall Sensor, but the Cobra Radar Hard Wires into the Fuse Box Panel just like the 2021 model did. Having to remove the whole kick panel is a pain in the a$$ instead of simply opening an access door, but I got it done. Another Clean install job. Thanks again my friend, and again, sorry about the rough start!
