Zs-ondabrain Posted May 28, 2005 Share #14 Posted May 28, 2005 in case you still havent found it, it looks like this.It has a protective sleeve over the what used to be white single terminal plug,It goes into a big white wire then into the harness that goes to the fusebox.

livenbad Posted May 29, 2005 Author Share #15 Posted May 29, 2005 Thanks for the replies!!! The first thing I did was replace the fusible links...they are not the problem. I am beginning to suspect the "new" fuse block with maxi fuses. It has a circuit board arrrangement. Will take it appart to see if there are shorts in the board.

beandip Posted June 12, 2005 Share #18 Posted June 12, 2005 I know that you have solved the problem . But for others that read this thread , don't just look at fuses or fusable links to see if there good or not . ALWAYS check continuity with a meeter . This may save hours and hours of checking .

26ounce Posted June 13, 2005 Share #19 Posted June 13, 2005 Amazingly, I just did the same thing myself this morning. Got home from a week on a drilling rig to find my battery dead. Went out and got a new battery, exactly the same brand and type, and put it in. To my surprise I fried a fusible link! As it turns out even though the battery was identical the makers had reversed the +ve and -ve. I guess they do this so it can fit different cars???Anyways, I now know to always check the terminals no matter what. +ve to starter, -ve has an the earth on it.FInally got to work at 10.20am :disappoin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
