Ford Econoline Van wire pass through firewall
I'm trying to run a wire from the engine compartment to the inside passenger compartment. Has anyone done this on a Ford Van? I heard about going through on the passenger side but I can't find anyt...

There two four pass-through circuits already in your van. It is part of a harness with one end inside on your steering column, and the other end below the windshield cowling above the brake booster. The dealers sell "modified vehicle power" pigtail plugs, you can use to connect to the pass through.
See this bulletin for info..... Its for newer vans but the pass-through circuit is present in your van as well, I think its only the inside connector that is different.

Or... you can run some wires through the steering column boot as long as you are careful to secure them so they won't rub. This is what I did, since I added the wiring before I learned about the pass-through circuits.
