Fuses on top of battery

Post by poloag »

Hi,

I noticed that the terminal bar was discolored so I cleaned mine, however how do you access the fuses, as I want to check the Power steering 50A fuse (f4).

I think that the fuses set up on that date of car, what you have there is a large "multi fuse assembly", so when a section fails, you just replace it with an "old style" fuse link - as used on previous versions of that set up where all the fuses were individual links bolted on the bus bar.

Edit:- but, now that I've looked at that picture, I can only see a bolt at one side of that "fuse", so maybe if a fuse has blown you need to replace the complete "multi fuse" plate?

not really a fuse then, if you need to replace the whole bracket when one goes down. :shock:
So you can't even get access to see if the fuse wire is weak or damaged?
