Everything electrical is in the front of the van under the dash above the fuse panel. Good luck with this system. It stinks in my opinion. Spent a bunch of time and effort on one last year for the customer retrofitting the newer version fans into the rear housing to try to overcome the crappy, weak fan of this version. It helps a little but the system is still only OK if you run it at full blast. Compressor, Condensor, and evaporator just don't work well enough to cool the interior of the van (not enough BTUs). The newer system is a marked improvement in every way. The next customer I have that wants to put a bunch of effort/money into one of these and I am going to pass on it.
