Bongo Fury

Just been checking my fuses to sort out the problem with my fridge and think/sure i have blown the main fuse taking the cover off as the bongo won't start and there was spark!
Off up to Norfolk tomorrow, so need to sort out, is the main fuse easily obtained, removed and fitted?

Thoughts much appreciated.

Sparky,
Thanks for your reply, is it easy to remove and buy a replacement?

Not sure never blown it but I think it has nuts and bolts to hold it in place, I got a full set of Mazda fuses from a wreck in a scrap yard

yes, you can get a replacment from any good motorfactors, take your old one to compare as it is an odd fuse.

It is bolted in place, so you will need to unbolt it before trying to pull it out

Many thanks Supreme Being,off to trawl the net for motor shops in Kent, a bit desperate as off to Norfolk tomorrow.

I was in East Sussex/Kent last W/E on the KESR stopped in Northiam Valley Camping nice spot

If you have another vehicle check if the fuses are compatable & swop for now. Replacements can be found at all motor factors including Halfords.

Trebormint, why i didn't i think of that, shall check the Landy in the morning.

Landy!! Respect.

That's probably why it's blown a fuse!

Which part of lovely Norfolk are you coming too? The weathers going to be great by the way!! t's been great here

for the last three months!! If you're anywhere near us,we'll keep an eye out

When I popped the main fuse (dropped the oil dip-stick on the alternator terminal. D'oh!) I was in the Highlands of Scotland. I just took the lead off one side of the main fuse and put it on the other side. It meant by-passing the main fuse until I got a replacement but it was something I could live with!!
