Central Junction Box problems/issues cross reference
Hello all! I am having an issue with my 02 cc/sb 4x4 7.3 f250.
I had fuse 38 melt (not blow) for the trailer running lights a week ago while towing my small enclosed trailer,and have been chasing my tail since.
The problem I am having is the relays are getting extremely hot after driving for 30 minutes or so. This is without fuse 38 being installed,or a trailer connected.
I disassembled the CJB(fuse panel) to take a look and the non serviceable relay that controls the trailer running lights was melted.
I removed the relay thinking it was shorting to ground internally,so I could bypass that circuit and wire up a external relay,but the serviceable relays are still getting hot.
I'm coming to terms that I am going to have to replace the CJB. I'm thinking the heat that went trough it that melted the fuse damaged the connections in the multi-layered box,and didn't do the coils in the relays any favors.
The part# on the CJB is PM2C7T-14A067-AN
I haven't had much luck finding that exact replacement. Does anyone know if its been discontinued? If so,is there a replacement service part?
Im trying to stay away from a used replacement if possible.
Also if anyone has a suggestion on a reputable place to order a replacement,it would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry for being long winded!
Thanks,Chris

Well,I got a used CJB and the pcm relay and Idm relay are still getting hot. No melted fuses this time.
Does anyone know if this is common on these trucks.
I probably would have never been concerned if I didn't have the fuse melt, but a hot relay doesn't seem normal to me.
Someone's had to have a similar issue.
Thanks,Chris
