Where does it go and what does it protect? Just wondering! My truck: 86 ext cab 22r 5 sp. Re: 60 Amp Fusible Link?

They use fusible links because they are cheaper than installing a fuse and it is never expected to blow unless something major has happened. The ones I remember in various autos usually link the battery to the main fuse block. -- Bryan -- Bryan Re: 60 Amp Fusible Link?

There's a terminal lug there, which transitions to the alternator harness; it's your B+ feed on the alternator. If it's blown, INSPECT that harness on the alternator side. Remember to disconnect your battery first. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" /> These older trucks have the insulation fail, and should be periodically checked. http://www.walkablecommunities.org/ Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for dinner.
