Ke20 Fuseable Links

[rollaresto]

ok, just a quick one for those with ke20's,

 

i've blowen the fuseable link from the starter to hazards and indicators, apartently from the wiring harness the wire should be red?

 

can anyone tell me from experience just where i'll find the pair of fuseable links? as i need to get the car on the road asap! and i can't find them for the life of me.

 

many thanks

just read the topic rules,

 

for those i haven't introduced myself to yet,

 

i'm chris obviously.

 

i've just purchased a ke20 for my other half and after owning it for the past month i too am on the look out for a ke10. (converted rotary fan with 4 rx4's to his name)

 

not to many mods to list on the old girl apart from 88 original miles, beautiful intact interior, bone cream color, fully rebuilt and lowered suspension and steering, rebuilt brakes and diff etc. etc. and a ke30 5 speed manual conversion, which i'm 2/3 of the way throu now, which is why i'm looking for the fuseable links given some one :D forgot to disconect the battery before dropping out the starter and bang, sparks every where and whoops.

 

hope you guys can help.

 

thanks

Not entirely sure, but I think fusible links usually go right next to the battery...

the fusible link is that two-wire-to-one-wire plug coming of the battery

 

its' purpose is to stop the car burning to the ground if there's an earth fault in the wiring loom

 

i blew the fusible link on my ke25 and cbf fixing it, so i just cut it out and joined the one wire to the positive terminal

I too am guilty of that. I'll get around to it one day, hopefully before the car burns to the ground.

mine never did

and i crashed it into a tree and earth out the horn circuit and headlight relay

it's all good :D

thanks for your help guys with locating the fuseable links, only one hassel

 

their not the problem, ok what's the one thing an auto car won't do in any other gear but park, turn on.

 

i had forgoten to rewire the manual safety switch for the auto. which for those playing at home also stops the hazards and indicators from working as well, and after consulting a wiring diagram dispalys the same diagnosis as a broken fuseable link. ARGHH!!!!

 

 

hehe now to drop the manual box out again thanks to forgetting to reset the clutch fork pivot as i've got no clutch bite .......

 

oh the fun and games continue..

 

thanks heaps guys again.

heh, lucky the last two auto-manual conversions i've done, i've had someone with me who remembered "oh, hook up the park switch". it's easy to forget, stupid two-pedal things :D
