In a 2001 Ford Expedition, the starter relay is situated in the main fuse panel beneath the hood, which is positioned on the right side of the engine near the battery. This fuse box is known as the integrated power module (IPM) and houses all the relays and major fuses for external vehicle components like lights and wipers. Additional issues like wiring shorts or corrosion leading to wire damage may also be present. The primary step is to inspect the relay for any faults, utilizing a voltage tool to verify power supply to the relay. If power is present, the relay should be replaced. Replacement relays typically range from $15 to $25, depending on whether an aftermarket or OEM product is chosen. OEM parts, which are genuine manufacturer components, tend to cost more and may be challenging to locate. Aftermarket parts, produced by third-party companies, are generally of good quality and a bit more affordable, although they may not have the official manufacturer's backing and could exhibit slight cosmetic variances.
