Bongo Fury

Hi guys,

Needs some advice please,

I have been having a few non starting issues, can had blown a two 100 amp main fuses. Problem then stopped.

So I was out the other day stopped at tescos, van would not start, next day went to get her with a view of getting it moved of the forecourt, gave it a go, started 1st time but very juttery. But had no power at all in the electrics, no radio, lights, nothing.

So today popped out trying to find a problem, got the van to start the noticed white smoke coming from the bonnet.

Now the main 100amp fuse is completely melted and I think the fuse box is nackered too.

So can anyone advise me what is connected to the main 100 amp fuse what could cause such a short?

And where could I find a X01 fuse box.

Oh goodness.

Sorry to hear you have problems.

I'm no techie, but Bongo Spares for the fuse box.

Called and left a message,
Thank you

The 100 Amp fuse carries a lot of things! However unless you have a burn't out loom it will most likely be the alternator diode pack that has failed, either a refurbed or new alternator required.

Hi thanks for reply,

By loom I am taking it that means the black fuse box, yes this time the fuse is completely melted and the box is burnt on the inside. Only managed to get the fuse out because it was still hot or it all be 'fused' together.

No the loom is a set of wires encased in wound insulation, there are several different sections that plug together in any vehicle, coming out at various intervals are connectors to feed items along the way. The terminal arm fuse box has a couple of looms as I recall the "B" - Battery and "F" - Front looms connecting to it.

The 100 Amp fuse is actually bolted in place you have to take the arm off to unbolt the fuse terminals from underneath.
