underbonnet fuse box

Post by turfite9999 » Mon Oct 14, 2019 5:47 pm

Hi Bongo buddies hope you all keeping well

I was wondering how hard is it to fit a under bonnet fuse box. On my ABS fuse a blade is missing so only one connection for the fuse.

Any help will be appreciated. Thank you

Slightly confused then;
The BLADES are the parts on the fuse, if one is missing then replace the fuse.
The fuse connector (socket) is mounted in the fuse holder, and has the wire for the fuse terminated on it, if it is missing then what has happened to it and where is the wire that terminates on the connector ? As without the wire your not going to get very far ....

Thanks for that Geoff

Its not the fuse its the blade coming from the fuse box that the fuse goes into. Dont know about the wires though I may have to take apart.

Ah thinking about it those fuses are females with the connector on the fuse end and the blades inserted in fuse block of course.
So is that one or both the blades are missing in the block ? They are might have been forced down if someone has tried to force a fuse in, the block can be released with the nuts at the ends.

Could it have pulled out with the fuse and still be stuck inside it?
