I believe they are talking about the fuse/junction block near your left knee. Left of the steering column, under the edge of the dash. By loosening the mounting screws you can pull it down and get a better look. Check for burned or melted places. There might be just one corroded connector somewhere.

Might help to know the year of the van if you're getting a replacement. :-)
