Excellent! I have a 2013 Mustang GT Premium 5.0L Deep Impact Blue just like that. I have an airbag light issue and this video helps with the diagnosis to know the locations of the fuse boxes.
Many thanks. 👍 I had removed the panel door but could not see where the fuse box was hidden. Stopped to get a work light and found your video, so now I know what I am looking for.
I found this video very helpful. Straight to the point, easy to understand instructions. Offered multiple routes to check continuity. Awesome video. I subbed
Kannarian, Yep! Ford calls it both the "Cigar Lighter, Front" and "Power Point (Instrument Panel)" which is powered by Fuse 22 (20A, Blue) in the Power Distribution Box in the Engine Compartment. Most Mustangs have a Second Power Point in the Arm Rest Console, that is Fuse 5 (20A, Blue) Power Point (Body). - Stiles
Hey actually I read all the comments but couldn't find my answer. My cigarette lighter in the middle console still works but my auxiliary isn't working. Radio is fine, CD is fine, satellite radio fine, but no aux. Would that be fuse 22 in the power distribution bro? I was actually looking at the Auxiliary Body Module thinking that was it but after searching what the ABM is I don't think that's the one lol!
Charles, It does seem like I've answered this question before. For the 2010 thru 2014 Mustang; Fuse 22 (20A, Blue) in the Power Distribution Box is the "PowerPoint (instrument panel)" or Cigar Lighter Front. There is a separate Fuse for the Power Point in the Arm Rest, Fuse 5 (20A, Blue) Powerpoint (Body) which is also in the Power Distribution Box in the Engine Compartment. The Powerpoint in the Arm Rest also has its own Ground Point. The Body Control Module controls the Rear Lights (Tail Light Parking Lamps, Turn Signals, Backup Lights . . . ). Are you talking about the Auxiliary Port to the Stereo? - Stiles
@@StilesAutomotive Hey bro thanks for the reply! Man I just unhooked the negative on my battery off and put it back on and it worked lmao!!! So we're all good now. Appreciate it bro.
Fuse 29 (30A, Pink) Passenger front window in the Power Distribution Box in the Engine Compartment is the Fuse you are looking for. My video (link below) may also help you. - Stiles Restore One -Touch Up Functionality and Re-Calibrate Power Windows - 2011 to 2014 Mustangs ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1QRRgmW-WdM.html
Going, The test light I'm referring to is a very simple one ( I normally use a multimeter) that just has a light in it. It tells you if there is voltage only (see Item 1 below). There are other Test Lights that are nicer and indicate voltage (see Item 2 below) and some that indicate continuity. If you are going to spend any more than about $20, you might as well by a cheap Multimeter. But, Test Lights and tough and have there place, they are simple and handy.

I have a 2012 mustang gtcs my wipers and washer operate when i first start the car but as soon as i take off they stop functioning.. checked all my fuses and relays any ideas on what might be the problem?
Jeovani, It's hard to believe a '12 Mustang is getting old, but it is happening. Or, is there something more going on, did your Mustang experience an accident? You are correct an intermittent electrical problem is not normally a Fuse or Relay. The Army taught me intermittent problems are often grounds (you have several: 1) at the Power Distribution Panel (in Engine Compartment), 2) at the Windshield Washer Pump, 3) at the Multifunction Switch, and 4) at the Windshield Wiper Motor). Grounds 1 and 2 are very unlikely the problem, 3 and 4 possible. Second, a broken Wire, internal Copper Wire broken inside the insulation. Check the Wiring Harnesses, pay close attention at the base of the Steering Column and the Firewall penetration (this is more possible if the Mustang was in an accident). Last and the most likely is a bad Windshield Wiper Motor or Multifunction Switch. Do either of these get hot at all? Here is an idea that may be worth a try, the Windshield Wiper Motor has an Electronic Board in it to control the Wiper speeds/intermittent Wipers, Zero your Mustang's Computer by disconnecting the Battery Cables at the Battery and touching them together for 10 seconds. I'd be surprised if this works, but it doesn't cost you anything but time to reset your Radio. Let me know how it goes! - Stiles
Lance, If you watch my videos, you know I'm not a big fan of removing Battery Terminals for maintenance tasks. However, for Air Bag System work and tasks similar to the Live Battery Cable on the Starter for Starter Replacement, I always do. Ford says to disconnect the Battery before "servicing high current Fuses", like the ones in the Power Distribution Box in the Engine Compartment. Most Circuits are turned "off" with the Ignition Switch, so most are not energized anyway when replacing Fuses, so I don't disconnect the Battery. Most of the High Current Fuses, just mentioned are Hot, On, Energized, all of time. - Stiles
Wolf, what year and model is your Mustang? For my 2013 the Instrument Cluster has 2 Fuses in the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel (shown in the video), Fuse 26 (10A, Red) Cluster Battery and Fuse 36 (5A, Tan) Anti-theft System. The second fuse powers the Anti-theft Transceiver and the Instrument Cluster. Reference 2013 Mustang Owner's Manual pages 222 thru 224. - Stiles
Diego, Probably not a Fuse, but Fuses are easy to check, use your Ford Mustang Owner's Manual as a guide to check the Fuses. Let me know how it goes! - Stiles
Hi and help! My brother locked his keys inside of a running 2014 Mustang and we’re trying to get in through the trunk because nothing seems to work and we are out of ideas. Is there any way to pop the trunk from under the hood? He got the hood up, and he’s confused on wether or not pulling a certain fuse will help.
Aimhigh, At this point (13 hours from when you added the comment) you have either got into the car or run out of gas. Removing a Fuse would not help unlock the door. I would unlock the door by pushing the Unlock Button on either the Driver's Door or Passenger's Door. Here is how, I would use a Metal Wire Coat Hanger, straighten it out, gently pull the top of the Window away from the Window Seal, put 2 pieces of something thin (it you have it) on either side of you opening, use the Coat Hanger to fish in and push the Lock/Unlock Bottom. A second option is to call a Tow Truck, the Tow Truck Driver often will have a Kit to open Car Doors for a small fee. Some day, when we share a frosty beverage together, I'll tell you a story of a similar situation, only under worse conditions. Opening a K-car in Western North Dakota in -30 degree weather. A Zoomie should appreciate that! Let me know how it goes! - Stiles
@@StilesAutomotive , my brother was able to turn off the car before he wasted all of his gas (he used up 20 miles worth) by pulling a fuse, and we managed to get through the window with a wire tool and were able to pull the lock up. Thanks for the advice, it came in really handy (we left it locked overnight and got it open the next morning)! And that sounds like an interesting story that makes for a good fireside tale. Thanks for the advice!
Nicholas, you didn't say your Model Year of Mustang, but I previously answered the question both ways: 1) for the 2005 thru 2009 Mustang; "OBDII Port Connector Power? (properly named the Data Link Connector (DLC)). This is Fuse 8 (10A, Red) Cluster, Data Link Connector (DLC) on your Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel. - Stiles" 2) for the 2010 thru 2014 Mustang; "For the 2013 Ford Mustang, Fuse 20 (15A, Blue) Diagnostic Connector in the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel, powers the Port.

Hello! I have a 2014 mustang. so i recently enabled mykey by accident and wanted to turn off my traction/abs so i took the fuse 34 out for a couple of months.. now that i finally got my disabled, i put the fuse back in and it did not work, i even bought another 5A rating fuse for it? The abs lights and traction controls light won’t turn back off… is it because i got the wrong fuse ? is it another fuse interjecting this issue? or is it bc my car needs to be back to stock ? please help
Leon, Yep, the Traction Control Circuit is Fused by Fuse 36 (5A, Tan), Passive anti-theft system (PATS), Instrument Panel Custer (IPC) in the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel, don't put anything but a 5A Fuse back in there. Interesting, you should have lost many other systems when you removed this Fuse. You may have confused your Mustang's Computer by getting something out of sequence. I'd try removing the Negative Battery Terminal (ok, since I don't know you), remove both Battery Terminals and touch them together for 10 seconds, this will zero out or return your Computer's Memory to OEM Stock Defaults. Now is a good time to Clean and Service your Battery, see video link below.

Very informative, Stiles. Thanks! And you're the perfect person to ask then! I've got the fuse diagrams for both fuse boxes (2006 GT). I'm mainly just not sure exactly which fuse is ACC (planning on hardwiring a dashcam). So what I do know is: the red wire goes to a 12v permanent supply 61 or 64? (one of the two cig lighter fuses), the black ground goes to, well, a ground (I hope there's one near or inside the fuse box? there's 3 bolt looking things in the fuse box) and the yellow goes to ACC...is this the accessory delay fuse? Number 44? I'm very new to this. Any help would be appreciated. And then when using a piggyback, do I put the same amperage fuse in each slot? I understand the original fuse goes at the bottom, and the new device's fuse goes at the top. 2006 GT
J Jappie, Yes, Fuse 44 (10A, Red) Delay Accessory in the Engine Compartment Power Distribution Box, however, I working hard to figure out how you want to wire the Dashcam. Since you talk about it so much, you probably want it on the switched On-Delay Circuit, so that the Dashcam turns off 15 or 20 minutes after the Key Ignition Switch is turned off, so the Dashcam doesn't drain your Battery. Sure, Fuse 44 powers this circuit, but is not the switched power. You want Fuse 6 (5A, Tan) Accessory Delay Feeds in the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel (which is part of the Smart Junction Box (SJB)), the Delay Relay is also part of the SJB. Verify me work here, by measuring voltage at Fuse 6: 1) with the Key Off (No Voltage), 2) with Key on (Battery Voltage, 11 or greater Volts), and 2) with Key Off and wait for Delay to time out (No Voltage again). Here is the rule of thumb when adding additional load to an OEM Circuit (And I trust this with Ford Vehicles!). Engineers like to over size everything by 10% or more, so it is save to add 10% load to a circuit. If you are using one of those Add-on, (you said piggyback, good description) or "Add-a-Circuit" Fuses, at Fuse 6 (at SJB), you are not adding load to Fuse 6 but you are adding load to the Fuse 44 (10A, Red). 10 percent of 10A is 1 amp. I would think your Dashcam would not use much more than this, if it does consider using a Relay (I put a link to a helpful video below). In the Voltage Gauges Video below, I powered the Gauge like you would power the Dashcam.

@@StilesAutomotive hi Stiles. Thanks for the informative reply and relay videos! The instruction manual states the following: 1. Connect the power cable (red) to the regular electric fuse with an output voltage of 12-30V and output current of 2.4 inside the fuse box; 2. Connect the ACC signal cable (yellow) to the ACC power fuse inside the fuse box; 3. Connect the ground wire (black) to the negative terminal or ground of the fuse box. The idea is to be able to use parking surveillance mode (the camera detects physical movement of itself while the car is parked). ..inside the engine compartment fuse box I've tested all fuses, and even an entire half an hour after switching off the engine, all fuses are still recieving 12v electricity. So while waiting for your reply, I've connected the hardwire kit in the following manner: Used 64 'Powerpoint#2' for red wire, used 68 'ignition' for ACC yellow wire ..changed the settings in the cam to auto-off but it still comes on by itself from time to time.. Now with regards to the SJB passenger compartment...I can confirm fuse 6 is switched (thank you for helping me solve this mystery!!). Is there another fuse in the SJB which is permanently on? Then I can use SJB fuse 6 and whatever other fuse in the SJB which permanently receives power P.S I've subscribed and will be sharing your channel with other people!
@@cavalryman_s197 Ok, that all sound ok, I think I would power it off of one of the 10A Fuses. The Radio Fuse, Fuse 20 (10A, Red) in the SJB, would work. I don't know what your add-a-fuse looks like, but if you are able to use them there are a number of unused slots on your Fuse Panel, Slots 5, 9, 11 and 13. Consider using one of these slots. - Stiles
Jerome, Sure! Ford calls it both the "Cigar Lighter, Front" and "Power Point (Instrument Panel)" which is powered by Fuse 22 (20A, Blue) in the Power Distribution Box in the Engine Compartment. Most Mustangs have a Second Power Point in the Arm Rest Console, that is Fuse 5 (20A, Blue) Power Point (Body). - Stiles
Hi I have a new battery and a new alternator but every 5 to 6 days I have to go downstairs and get a jump to start my car after looking some information up I was told that I have a drainage in my car but no mechanic is able to assist me because they claim they can't find a problem but I have to call AAA almost every other 6 days that's mentioned before could this be the problem that's draining my car I have a 2007 Ford mustang convertible. Thank you
I feel like i should mentioned this my neighbors keep saying they see my lights flash on and off at night sometimes when my car is completely off I do have a radio that I take out of my car and I don't have anything plugged in.
LOVES, Upon reading your first post, this is my thought. If problem started after Alternator Replacement (unlikely, you probably replaced due to problem) possible bad Diode in New Alternator even thou it is new. Your second post . . . Do you have an aftermarket (added on) Anti-Theft Alarm or Remote Start System? This could cause your problem. Do you know if you have Daytime Running Lights (DRL) it is optional on your Mustang. The DRL Module could be bad. Or more likely your Anti-Theft Control Module is turning the lights on and off. But, why? And why only intermittently each 6 days? After thinking about it, the TSB below makes some sense now. I looked for a Ford Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) on your issue and did not find one on your Battery Drain (or parasitic loss). I did find several that are related, since they read the same here is one - - EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS; TSB #TSB-08-9-2 FORD: UN-COMMANDED PERIMETER LIGHTING. VEHICLES MAY EXHIBIT UN-COMMANDED PERIMETER LIGHTING FEATURE (HEAD, PARK AND SIDE MARKER LAMPS) DUE TO WATER INDUCED SHORT TO GROUND IN THE DOOR DISARM SWITCH. I don’t think the Anti-Theft Control Module is bad, it would do it all the time. Do you know if it is possible one of your Sensors in the Doors or Trunk Lid is getting wet? You do have a 2007 Convertible, is the Top or Door Window Seals leaking a little water? Does this problem happen after it rains? Or after car wash days? I don’t have anything you can do to help us determine the problem, you need someone to work thru the problem. Whatever is determined, I want you to have the Service Technician “clean all of the related grounds” to the component that is at fault. They may not do this, and as your Mustang ages it will insure grounds are not an issue. Let me know how it goes! - Stiles
I have a 2011 Ford Mustang and my trunk recently stopped working i replaced the trunk latch with a brand new oem one but it still doesn’t work. I have a feeling its a fuse because every time i press the trunk release button a clicking sound comes from the bottom passenger side. Do you have an idea to which fuse is the one that controls the trunk mechanisms ? ..
Jonathan, Yep, you should check the power to the device connector prior to replacing it. Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel (in the Passenger Side Kick Panel, like I show in the video) check Fuse 17 (20A, Yellow) Power door locks, Trunk release, reference your 2011 Mustang Owner's Manual (see link below), Pages 226 thru 228. Fuse 17 also powers the Door Locks, do your Power Door Locks work? If so Fuse 17 is ok. The clicking sound you hear from the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel is the Truck Lease Relay, which is good you hear the relay. The connector at the Luggage Compartment Lid Release Solenoid is a 4-pin connector, in addition to power, the connector has 2 wires, one for the Luggage Compartment Lamp, and one for the Trunk Ajar indication on the dash. You need to verify power to Pin 3, when you press your remote button 2-times or have a buddy press the Trunk Release Button near the shifter. And verify a good ground at Pin 4. My 2013 (which is probably the same as your Mustang) has a Brown/with Blue Stripe Wire to Pin 3 and a Black/with White Stripe Wire from Pin 4. Get me know how it goes! - Stiles owner.ford.com/tools/account/how-tos/owner-manuals.html?year=2011&make=Ford&model=Mustang owner.ford.com/tools/account/how-tos/owner-manuals.html
@8:10 whay is That 30 amp silver fuse? On the far left? Mine does not have anything in that spot and from what ive gathered the diagram says "not used"
Bud, That is Circuit Breaker 47, and you are right, its description is "Circuit Breaker: Not used (Spare)". That is for all 2010 thru 2014 Mustangs. Is it cheaper to just include all of the Fuse if used or not? You wouldn't think so. I didn't add any Fuses to my Mustang, it came with all of the slots filled, used or not. - Stiles
i have mustang 2008 gt and ac stop working when I hit road hole and sometimes it work by itself when I continue driving and sometimes I have to stop and open the hood and play with fuse box and it barely work again
Kevin, The circuit is a simple circuit, but could have been simpler. It uses a NonServicable Relay in the Smart Junction Box (SJB). The Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel (shown in the video) is located on (or is part of) the SJB. The Fuse you said is ok, (Fuse 24 (20A, Yellow) Horn, Horn Relay) is not the problem on an intermittent fault. The Horn Switch (on Steering Wheel) may be the problem, but not so likely. The Horn Switch is connected to the Mustang thru a Clockspring. Do the Lights and other Switches on the Steering Wheel work ok? If not, your Horn problem points to the Clockspring. The Horn itself: likely the problem. Has your Mustang been in a front-end accident? Is the Horn Electrical Connector corroded? Check the Horn Wires for breaks and abrasions. Remove and clean the Horn Grounding Point. First, get a helper to press, hold, press the Horn Switch, while you hold your hand on the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel. Feel and listen for the Horn Relay to click. Second, remove the Horn Electrical Connector, and check for voltage when the Horn Switch is pressed by your helper using a Test Light or Multimeter. This is the non-Black Wire (or Ground Wire) (Actually the Ground wire is Black with a Yellow stripe and the Positive Horn Wire is Yellow with a Red Stripe). Let me know how it goes! - Stiles
Margaret, I have used the Little Plastic Tool once or twice, but I normally use a Needle Nose Pliers, (like these amzn.to/2Wh4MAa ). I keep my Needle Nose Pliers handy in the shop, I use them all the time and I use them for the Wire Cutter on it, all the time also. If you don't have Tools, a Leatherman MultiTool with a Needle Nose on it would be your best buy. Or, if you are just starting out, and want to work on your Car more, a Set may be a better option ( like this amzn.to/3DaT6Ql be careful the Needle Nose in this set may not have Wire Cutters, I wouldn't buy it then) - Stiles Here is an Alternative - - Shop Tip #14 - The Perfect Alternative to a Small Needle Nose Pliers - the Hemostat. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-F6TjYYw7vw0.html
Jonathan, there is a Fuse for your Fan, however if it comes on intermittently it is not the Fuse that is your problem. (The Cooling Fan Fuse is Fuse 7 (40A, Green) in the Power Distribution Box (shown in the video) under the hood.) You have 2 Cooling Fan Relays in your Mustang, one of them maybe bad. Relay 50 Cooling fan relay (high) and Relay 55 Cooling fan relay (low) both of these Relays are located in the Power Distribution Box in the engine compartment - Stiles
Sir great channel thank you for everything you’re doing I just recently found your channel and looks like I’m going to be spending a lot of time I’m working on a 2014 Mustang it was a V6 my son and I bought a 2010 GT that was wrecked we took the motor out of it and put it in the 14 do you have any recommendations for wiring? It is the 4.6L that we put into the 2014. And the only reason we done it that away was because we had the donor car if you could help out with any of the wiring that would definitely be great for any recommendations
Billy, You got lucky or made a wise choice, meaning you picked two good years of Mustangs. The 2010 and the 2014 Mustang are very compatible for wiring. You may already know this, but I want to remind you how good of selection you made. The fifth generation S-197 body style Mustang was made from 2005 through 2014. For the 2005 through 2010 production years the GT used an aluminum block 4.6 L single overhead cam three valve modular V8 with variable Cam shaft timing VCT, that was revised for 2010 resulting in 315 hp, while earlier years produced 300 hp. (I wish you had a 5.0L donor car, producing 412 hp (for 2011 or more for other years) and 390 ft-lbs of torque) The 2010 model year Mustang with a redesigned interior which also included a redesign of the electrical Wiring Harness and Fuse Panels, Ford added things like the sequential LED tail lights, but I think what Ford was really doing is preparing the S-197 to receive the 5.0 L Engine the next year. With all of that said, here’s my recommendation, that you go online and purchase both Ford manuals, the 2010 Mustang Wiring Diagrams and the 2014 Mustang Wiring Diagrams. I think you’ll find that they are very similar, but you’ll be able to determine differences, if any, for your project. Let me know how it goes! - Stiles They can be found at the following website for the company that publishes the Ford manuals www.helminc.com/ www.helminc.com/helm/Result.asp?Style=helm&Mfg=FMC&Make=FRD&Model=MUST&Year=2010&Category=&Keyword=&Module=&selected%5Fmedia=
@@StilesAutomotive Thank you so much sir!! I must have been lucky on this one because I did not know all of that information I am very stoked now!! I’m definitely going over to get those manuals. Once I finish with this mustang I’m going to sell it and head back to the auction and going to buy 2012 2013-2014 some where in those year models to get that 5.0!! I wish we would have done a little more research before we jumped on this one but almost finish I’ll come back and update you on what I did just so you know thank you for all your help sir!!💯👍
@@Theferg1 I thought of a few things after I gave the last comment: 1) as you get ready to junk or scrap or sell your donor car, be sure to remove as many fasteners as you can, within reason of course. When I rebuild an engine, are use ARP fasteners, but I always like to keep the old fasteners, they always come in handy. Often times fasteners on the body of a car are extremely hard to find, you can’t find them in the parts store and it seems like when you need some fastener it’s been taken off the car already at the salvage yard. Keeping fasteners is always a good idea. 2) Record the work you do including part numbers and other information that either you may forget in the future or if someone else is working on the car may need in the future. I think it adds Thousands of dollars worth of value to the car. What I’m talking about is a maintenance log book, take a look at my video: Car Maintenance Log Book (Why you need to keep one) - - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1yIke4uNL2U.html 3) similar to the maintenance logbook ideal of recording your work. When you get the two Ford shop manual wiring diagram books that I suggested you buy in the first comment. Those books belong to you, they’re not library books, I suggest you write in them. Mark up the wiring diagrams with any changes you made to the wiring harnesses. Or make copies of the pages, cut them up and combined them together to show where you spliced the 2010 wiring harness to the 2014 wiring harness. Again so you have a record of what you did and to help you do troubleshooting in the future. Now that you are experienced, when you head to the auction, consider buying a totaled GT500 and doing a GT500 clone car, that would be a good project. Back in 1987, I bought a totaled '84 Mustang SVO, I used a number of parts on my '79 Mustang, which I still have today. The '84 thru '86 SVO was only produced in a hatch back. I regret not keeping the whole car, buying an '84 convertible and making a convertible '84 SVO. - Stiles
Tenita, For your 2014 Mustang, In the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel, Fuse Number 39 (20A, Yellow) is the Radio/Navigation and you may also need Fuse Number 41 (15A, Blue) Accessory Delay, Reference Pages 230 thru 232 of your 2014 Owner's Manual (Page numbers vary from year to year). Is the Radio on, but you have no sound? You may have a Radio Issue that several Mustangs have experienced.

The Horn circuit is simple, or I should say 2 circuits. At the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel there is a Fuse and Horn Relay (Not Serviceable). Fuse 24 (20A, Yellow) Horn, is the Horn Fuse that you should check continuity thru, it may not look blown. The Coil side of the Horn Relay goes thru the Steering Wheel Clock Spring and thru the Horn Switch in the Steering Wheel, then back thru the Clock Spring to ground. The switched side of the Horn Relay simply goes to the Horn. I'd check that Horn Fuse again and while you are down there have someone press the Horn Button on the Steering Wheel and feel & listen for the activation of the Horn Relay. You may have a Horn Relay, Clockspring, Horn Switch, or Horn defective. You can test the Horn by powering it from the Car Battery. Let me know how it goes! - Stiles

Angelina, You didn't state what year your Mustang is, but yes, the Hazard Lights are controlled by the Console Switch thru the Smart Junction Box and then the Body Control Module. - Stiles
I have a 07 Mustang v6 and the rear taillights work when the lights are on, the rear turn signals and hazards dont work, any idea what fuze is connected to those? i can’t seem to find any park lamps in the manual, the bulbs seem to work fine.
Zentro, Your Turn Signal Lights/Hazard Lights are powered by the Low Current Board (part of the Smart Junction Box and which the Passenger Compart Fuse Panel is part of (all shown in video)). The Low Current Board is Fused by 2 (partly by 3) Fuses in the Engine Compartment Power Distribution Panel. Fuse 59 (30A, Green) SJB#5, Fuse 67 (30A, Green) SJB#4 and (Partly) Fuse 63 (30A, Green) SJB#6. - Stiles
Quan, Ford calls it both the "Cigar Lighter, Front" and "Power Point (Instrument Panel)" which is powered by Fuse 22 (20A, Blue) in the Power Distribution Box in the Engine Compartment. Most Mustangs have a Second Power Point in the Arm Rest Console, that is Fuse 5 (20A, Blue) Power Point (Body). For anyone else reading this; this applies to all 2010 thru 2014 Mustangs - Stiles
Hellgang, Fuse 10 (30A, Green) Parklamps in the Power Distribution Box in the Engine Compart is for the Parking Lamps on the 2000 Mustang, Reference your 2000 Mustang Owner's Manual page 123.
Poppet, you didn't say the Year of your Mustang. For the 2005 thru 2009 Mustangs it is Fuse 10 (30A, Pink) in the Power Distribution Box in the Engine compartment. For the 2010 thru 2014 Mustangs it is Fuse 9 (30A, Pink) Wipers & Washers in the Power Distribution Box in the Engine compartment. - Stiles
i have a 2014 mustang, which fuse do i have to remove to reset my radio sync? my radio went out, all i see is the temeprature and which direction i am driving
Evan, In the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel, Fuse Number 39 (20A, Yellow) is the Radio/Navigation and you may also need Fuse Number 41 (15A, Blue) Accessory Delay, Reference Pages 230 thru 232 of your Owner's Manual. Also make sure these Fuses are good and not blown. Another option is to work in the Engine Compartment at the Power Distribution Box, removing Fuse Number 1 (80A, Black) is the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel Fuse, which will remove power from inside the Mustang, Reference Page 226 of your Owner's Manual. Yet, another option is to remove the negative Battery Terminal. Plan to leave the Fuse or Terminal removed for 10 to 15 minutes. It seems your condition may be caused by a low Battery condition. Charge your Battery overnight with a Trickle Charger and drive the Mustang. Let me know how it goes. - Stiles
@@jays5605 it didn’t work. I tried all the steps. My mechanic said my fuses are good. He also disconnected my negative battery but that didn’t work either. I’m not sure what to do at this point
Paul, The little Fuse Puller on the Fuse Panel Cover is made of plastic for a couple of reasons, it's cheap and it doesn't conduct electricity (so you don't inadvertently short across anything). I often . . . most often . . . ok, I pretty much always use a Needle Nose Pliers ( like this one - - amzn.to/2Wh4MAa a set is often a better value - - amzn.to/3DaT6Ql ) I also did a number of Shop Tip Videos which are often over looked and don't get a lot of views, one of them (link below) suggests the Hemostat is a "Perfect Alternative" to the Pliers. The Hemostat has a locking feature which is sometimes helpful.

So my car has recently had a weird thing with the lights. My headlights and dome lights will flicker after I start my engine but not when my car is just on. Also my check engine light doesn't emit as long as it should but it still comes on for a second when I start my car. Any diagnosis? Thank you
Colton, First thing the comes to mind, is your Battery is old and does not have the Energy required to Start the Engine and Power the Headlights. When the Engine starts the Alternator helps the Battery with the Headlights and all is ok. Let me know how it goes! - Stiles
Wen, not that much, I've always thought (and not really justified in doing so) that these (Sherrod, Roush, etc.) packages are more cosmetic than performance. This is unlike Hennessy which is performance. Since you are asking this on the Fuse Box Location Video, do you have an electrical question? The 2010 Mustang is special, although it still has the 4.6L Engine (like the 2005 thru 2009, but more horsepower for 2010), it has a redesign interior and redesigned Electrical System (like the 2011 thru 2014 Mustangs). I believe Ford Engineers changed the Electrical System in preparation for the 2011 Engines. I would be your 2010 Sherrod uses a mostly unmodified 2010 Electrical System. You may have some add-ons. - Stiles
Hi there, I have a 2007 mustang GT that I garage over the winter. I usually start it once a week to keep battery going. Well I forgot and battery dead. When I jumped it with a portable pack, it almost started but then went completely dead. No power at all. Funny thing is a new battery and same thing. Almost turns over then completely dead. Fuse blown? Or something else? Thank you in advance
Dave, no, not a blown Fuse. You have to know how much power is in the Battery, even if new. My video (link below) will help you! - Stiles Charging & Starting Systems Troubleshooting: Engine Fails to Crank or Cranks Slow, May or Not Click ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-POAIX4QaEhA.html
My 2013 mustang DC cigarette sockets aren't working. I was using a phone charger that may have been a little strong. I don't know which numbered locations those are. Or if it's solely on the engine compartment box or kick panel box.
T, sounds like you are talking about the "Power Point" in the center console (inside the Arm Rest Console). If so this is Fuse 5 (20A, Yellow) Powerpoint (body) located in the Power Distribution Panel in the Engine Compartment. The Lighter Port in the center of the Dash is the "Cigar Lighter, Front" this is powered by Fuse 22 ( 20A, Yellow) PowerPoint (instrument panel) also located in the Power Distribution Panel in the Engine Compartment. Let me know how it goes! - Stiles
Expert, For your 95 Mustang GT, I wouldn't use any of the OEM Fuses or Open/Unused Fused Slots (of which your GT doesn't have any, I believe). I would run a new Fuse or Fuse Block and a Relay that is energized by the Switched (Ignition Key) Power to ensure that are off when the Key is off. A video I did to install a Dual Battery (and Digital Volt Gauges) in my truck may help you. Look at how I used Relays in that video (see link below). - Stiles Dual Battery Design & Install; Modification for Any Car or Truck, Shown on 2004 to 2008 F-150 Trucks. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-t05w5tv64g0.html

So my mustang radio fuse shortage and I tried looking at it when I tried to start up my car it wouldn’t start and was making a noise from the fuse box area what should I do
Dane, Your description doesn't give me much to go on. Try looking at some forums for the help, and you may be able to better describe your problem, if you don't find a solution. - Stiles
John, You didn't tell me much to go on, Year of Mustang or RGB Light information, but I may have answered your question here in the comments: 1) Read the "J Jappie" Thread, it is very detailed. 2) Read the "Justin Warren" Thread were I stated, "Justin, I admit I don't know that much about you LC2 Audio Component, I thick it is just a splitter that separates out the bass (on one side) and everything else (on the other). It doesn't have an amp in it, does it? I want you to understand the power requirement. I think the LC2 has a very low power requirement and I would splice into an easy to find Stereo Power Circuit. At the Fuse Panel in the interior passenger compartment (I show in the video) use Fuse 39 ( 20A, yellow) Radio / Navigation, this is "Hot at all times" for the Radio Power. Look at my video and pause at 7:49. You easily splice (see my video on wire splicing) into this circuit at Connector C2280A, Pin 1 or the White Wire with Red Stripe. If you pause the video C2280A is the gray connector on the left-side of the screen and you can see the White/Red Wire in the top/right of the connector. Probe it and make sure it has 12 V. You can add about 10% or 2 amps of load to this circuit, I would think, and be fine. If you need more power than that, run a new wire from the Battery. Don't power Amplifiers and other high power draw stuff from this circuit. Let me know how it goes! - Stiles" 3) John, let me know how it goes! Thanks for the comment. - Stiles
I have a 2005 mustang and when I try to open the trunk with my key fob the button doesn’t work and when I go to the fuse box and opened it from there the trunk opens, do you know anything that could be the problem?
Cris, the simplest answer would be the Button on the Key Fob is going bad, it could be on a 2005 vehicle. If you are like me, I use one Key Fob and even on my 1998 Mustang the 2nd Key Fob is new (used once or twice). Did you try a second Key Fob? If so . . . the Mustang uses a Trunk Release Relay on/in the Fuse Panel in the Passenger Side Kick Panel. When you press your Trunk Release Button do you hear or feel the Trunk Release Relay actuate on the Fuse Panel? How are you making the Solenoid operate from the Fuse Panel? Are you bypassing the Trunk Release Relay? - Stiles
Just watched this video and have a question. When my headlights are on, I have no interior lights on my steering wheel buttons, traction control switches, or the headlight switch, led strips on headlights (in drl mode only). LED strips function properly with headlights on. This all occurred after blowing a fuse for fog lights. Any idea where I should look to fix this. I have resolved the headlight switch. Could this be a drl module problem? Car is a 2013 premium gt
Bruce, Check out Fuse 10 (15A, Blue) Switch illumination, Steering Wheel, Cluster and Panel Illumination, Pony projection lights (2013-2014); in the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel. I believe these are all related to this 1 Fuse. Let me know how it goes! - Stiles
@@StilesAutomotive thanks for the reply Stiles. I replaced this fuse but it did not fix the issue. To give you a little bit of history, I originally had an led foglight installed that blew. When this fog light blue it's shorted out these interior lights. I reinstalled the factory fog light bulb and these function properly now it's just the interior lights on the steering wheel traction control button and headlight switch that are not working. This is why I was thinking maybe a daylight running module has gone bad. With my daytime running lights on the fog lights light up but the LED strips do not they only work with the headlights on. I have replaced the headlight switch thinking maybe there was a problem there but that was not it. Any other suggestions?
Platadah, The Oil Pressure Sensor has one wire going to it and is powered thru the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) (there is also a branched signal wire going back to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)). The Cluster is powered by Fuse F26 (10A, Red) and Fuse F36 (5A, Tan) in the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel (Smart Junction Box (SJB)). One wire and it grounds thru its base. This is the same for the 3.7L, 5.0L and the 5.8L. - Stiles
Geez Steve, that sounds like a bad Wire or loose Connection. Or, maybe your Antenna Connections need to be cleaned. Just reaching here, but going further, there are little Capacitors on different systems, like on your Antenna Wire, Coils, etc. That is a tough question to troubleshoot in a text message. Let me know if this helps! - Stiles
Sir, what Fuse is for the DRL Strips on a 2013-2014 mustang? One of the two led strips in my headlight is not working on the passenger side of my 2014 mustang. Is there a problem in Fuse you think? Trying so hard to find an answer, I dont want to replace the whole headlight, so expensive. Does the led have a bulb?
Joseph, No, I don't think your problem is a Fuse, if it was a Fuse both on that side and both on the other side . . .and the Rear Parking Lights would be out. I believe you are right, you need a new Headlight Assembly. No, no bulb or element to replace, I think it is molded in. I haven't heard any specific problem, but you should look at your Headlight Assembly to determine if you can see a problem with it. I'd like to know what you find. - Stiles
@@StilesAutomotive Thanks for your reply! The headlight will need to be replaced completely but its okay, i guess. Its strange that just one LED bar was not functioning even though there was electricity running to the assembly itself. Anyway, I appreciate your response.
Roberto, Are you talking about your OBDII Port Connector Power? (properly named the Data Link Connector (DLC)). This is Fuse 8 (10A, Red) Cluster, Data Link Connector (DLC) on your Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel. - Stiles
Hey man I hope for a response here, I’m simply needing to wire in a lc2 to a constant 12v supply. I was wanting to wire that into the inside fuse box. Any ideas on a fuse spot that can produce that cleanly ?
Justin, I admit I don't know that much about you LC2 Audio Component, I thick it is just a splitter that separates out the bass (on one side) and everything else (on the other).

Just the Fuel Gauge? If just the "gas gage" is not working it is likely more than the Fuse.

Let me know how it goes! - Stiles
Arthur, Yes I do. The Horn Relay is located on (in) the Smart Junction Box (or the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel). That whole Assembly is called the Smart Junction Box and the Horn Relay located in it is "Non-Serviceable" You didn't ask, but the Horn Fuse is Fuse 24 (20A, Yellow) also located on the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel (location shown in the video). - Stiles

Why is there no mention of a relay fuse in the trunk of a 2014 Mustang convertible? If you remove the inside panel on the right, it exposes a fuse. Does anyone know what that fuse is intended for?
Darrin, For the Convertible there are 2 Relays in that area, the Convertible Top Lower Relay and the Convertible Top Raise Relay. These are Relays. These are not Fuses or Circuit Breakers. If you are sure it is a Fuse, I will investigate what it is, there is a Body Control Module and an Subwoofer Amplifier back there. - Stiles
@@StilesAutomotive Ah, thank you so much for the 411. Is there any way that I can contact you directly? I would like to provide a photo to be certain. It appears elevated plugged into a silver box with thick wires coming from one end. The plug-like fuse/relay itself is white. Does this sound like a relay for the convertible top motor or a subwoofer amplifier? I would like to know before I proceed as my top works intermittently when trying to place it back up. Coming down is fine. Re: relay? in trunk of 2014 Mustang convertible
Josue, When asking a question like that always state your Make, Model, Engine, and Year of your Mustang. If you are watching this video you likely have a 2005 thru 2014 Mustang. If you have a 2005 thru 2009 Mustang the Cooling Fan Fuse is Fuse 3 (40A, Green, Cartridge Fuse) on the Power Distribution Box (shown in my video, in the Engine Compartment, under the hood). If you have a 2010 thru 2014 Mustang the Cooling Fan Relay Fuse is Fuse 7 (40A, Green, Cartridge Fuse) on the Power Distribution Box (shown in my video, in the Engine Compartment, under the hood). If Fuse 7 is ok, take a look at Fuses 21 (30A, Pink) and 46 (5A, Tan). These two Fuses pull in (or energize) the two Cooling Fan Relays to turn your Cooling Fan on and off. I hope this helps! - Stiles
ETH, what year is your Mustang? for the 2010 to 2014 Mustang, In the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel, Fuse Number 39 (20A, Yellow) is the Radio/Navigation and you may also need Fuse Number 41 (15A, Blue) Accessory Delay, Reference Pages 230 thru 232 of your 2014 Owner's Manual (Page numbers vary from year to year). - Stiles

MAJ Media, Sir, help me help you. The "4th Fuse" doesn't make sense. You mean it is the 4th time you blew it out? Fuse 4 at the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel (in the Kick Panel) is the Interior Lamps. It sounds like you mean, Fuse 7 (7.5 Amp, Brown) Power Mirror Switch, Memory Seat Module. You figured out not to put a bigger fuse in the location that is blowing out; yep, don't do that. It sounds like you have a dead short, either in the Wiring Harness to the Memory Seat Module or something bad in Memory Seat Module. The Memory Seat Module is often located under the Seat, I think it is in your Truck. Did you store something under the seat and damage the Wiring Harness to the Module? Anyway, look and smell for burnt and melted wires under your seat and trace those Module Wiring Harness back to the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel looking for shorted areas of the Harness. Reference your 2014 Ford F-150 Raptor Owner's Manual, Page 230, for fuse information. Let me know if I'm talking about the wrong Fuse. - Stiles
@@StilesAutomotive I meant to write the 4th fuse down in sequence 1234 the fourth fuse down controls the power mirrors and the power seat.

MAJ Media, That sounds like a good plan, also when doing what you mentioned, disconnecting the Wiring Harnesses, if you use a Multimeter to continuity check to ground on Wires that should not go to ground. But, do this too - visually inspect (and smell) the Wiring Harnesses and that Memory Seat Module, look for melted plastic. Look for areas where the Harness lays on top of sharp edges, under the Seat, under and thru the Console, and in the Dash (center and behind the Glove Compartment). Are you sure something didn't get pushed under the seat and damage the Wires at the Memory Seat Module? Make sure you look at the Module and smell it, I'd bet you a Frosty Beverage . . . your problem is the Module or the Connector (and Wiring) going into the Module. - Stiles I don't know how to show you a picture of the Module, here is a Ford Website that has your Module (don't know if this is a good place to purchase or not, just using it to show you the Module) - - www.villagefordparts.com/oem-parts/ford-module-bb5z14c708a?c=bD0yJm49U2VhcmNoIFJlc3VsdHM%3D Put your VIN into this website and see if you have any Ford F-150 Recalls on this issue. - - owner.ford.com/tools/account/maintenance/recalls.html

Does anyone know where the fuse for the turn signals? My right turn signal comes on automatically with I start my car and won’t shut off. 2009 mustang gt please help
Mesuron, Your turn signal comes on when you start your Mustang because it is likely your multifunction switch has failed. It is telling the control module that the turn signal is on when it is in the off (middle) position so it needs to be replaced. Less likely, but possible is that the Body Control Module has failed. I say less likely, but that is unlikely. And you would expect there to be some OBDII Fault Codes. Let me how it goes! - Stiles

@@atalawadhi7420 You have to turn it off each time you start the car. I don't know of a way to keep it off all of the time. I'd look for an answer in the Mustang Forums. - Stiles
Taly, What year of Mustang do you have, and are you talking about the Parking Aid Function or Parking Lights? For my 2013, the Reverse Parking Aid Fuse is Fuse 32 ( 10A, Red) and the Parking Lamps / License Lamps Fuse is Fuse 22 (15A , Blue). Reference the 2013 Ford Mustang Owner's Manual Pages 222 thru 224. - Stiles
Omar, Yes there is a lot of great information in the Mustang Owner's Manual. Sometimes the information is a little hard to interpret, you have to know what Ford is talking about, but it is all useful! - Stiles
Crazy story happened today I went to get my muffler delete and my AC was working and then I go to pick up my car and guess what my ac isn't working, I have a 2013 mustang V6 and the lights work but nothing comes out the vent, can you tell me which fuse that would be or if that even is a fuse, I showed the people before I left and they said they don't know, they're English was broken they were Mexican so spoke Spanish mainly and they said maybe a blown fuse and I said how though it was working right when I dropped it off and they said I have to go next door to the other car place to get it fixed but the guy is in Mexico rn, sounds kinda fishy don't you think, I never had a problem with ac in my car
Thaddeus, Don't get me started on shifty businesses. You said "AC" but then "nothing comes out the vent", so your Blower Motor is not blowing air? If so Fuse 4 (30A, Pink) Blower Motor Relay in the Power Distribution Box in Engine Compartment, and then Fuse 45 (5A, Tan) Wiper relay and module, Blower relay in the Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel, do your Wipers work? If so . . . probably not this Fuse. - Stiles
Ok, locations are the same, Power Distribution Box (front right side of engine compartment) and Passenger Compartment Fuse Panel ( lower passenger side area behind the kick panel). Being long winded, helps people reference their Owner's Manual Fuses and Relays Section. In the case of the 2007 Ford Mustang, see pages 176 thru 181. - Stiles
