Help..Electrical..Fuse Problem?

Post by akendall »

Hello fellow Delica owners...looking for a little guidance here.

So the other day, my digital clock, stereo, and lighter all stopped working. I checked the fuses and when I tried to replace the burnt fuse, it blew the new one when I inserted it. It did this more than once. I also just realized that my main headlights aren't working either. Only the outer ones are working.

So, are all these things connected? If my fuse box is shorting out, how do I go about fixing this?

Thanks!!
Angela

google combi switch on the forum and hopefully this is not the problem (switch is $$$)

Likely a fusible link in the battery compartment, that or this little plastic connector (also in the battery bay). A good person to get a hold of is "Overlanderjay" whom has dealt with many scenarios like this one. Look him up in the member list and send him a PM. Also, there have been a number of threads written regarding this issue, might be worth using the search engine for this.

I had a similar situation and it turned out being the little plastic connector.

Good luck... smiles.
