I received a new JWest fuse block update but there was no paint on the mounting base. When did this happen?

QUOTE(914Sixer @ Aug 11 2014, 06:40 PM)  I received a new JWest fuse block update but there was no paint on the mounting base. When did this happen? Make sure you insulate the spade connectors. After no problems with the installation, a few months later I lost a whole host of electrical items (gauges, turn signals, etc.) while driving. Turned out one or more of the spade connectors had been pressed down towards the base when it was installed, and finally contacted it and shorted (pardon my inelegant description, but I had my shop diagnose and fix the problem, so I'm trying to remember their description). Just make sure that there's no way a spade connector can short against the base. |
