re: 73 'Cuda Fuse Box

Post by Lincrafts.com »

Hi, does anyone know which fuse is for what or have a diagram please? All we have found is a picture of the fuse box and the numbers 1-8. As we have only had the car since Saturday we haven't had time to source a manual.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers Carl :)

I just want an MOT so I can get it registered and start using it.

Robin is working on it as much as possible but he's not quick enough LOL

He wants orange indicators at the rear as there are lots of not so young folk around us that would be stupid enough to hit it up the ass. Even though most of them don't use their indicators, or drive base models where they're not fitted.

Off to Halford after we finish posting teddies for wiring.

Thanks Anton, have you got any spare brain cells so I can figure it out :lol:

My pleasure ;)

Many of us have converted the reversing lights to indicators and replaced bulb with an orange bulb. Keeps the Feds and the MOT man happy.

What is it you are trying to do that requires the involvement of the fuse box, we may be able to help?

Or get a custom LED circuit made up with both clear and amber LED's to mount behind the stock reversing light lens so it serves for both like I did. Talk to the guy on the link I gave you for the headlight kits.

He says he just wants to know what fuse does what as he hasn't got a flipping clue, or words to that effect :lol:
We have no dash lights, no horn and no wipers so far.
He's trying to do as you as say convert the reversing light to an indicator. He keeps trying to tell me what he's doing and I am getting really good at this blank expression. It may be better if he speaks to someone when we are at a show.

Back to teddies I understand them :)

There are plenty of threads on this subject in the electrical section as this seems a common fault. Usually down to a bad earth.

Thanks a lot that's very helpful will try it later & then try & tackle the front end & fit side lights in the headlights & orange indicators where the front driving lights are.
Will keep you posted

Yep, I did that too. the front end is easy. Rear just needs a bit of thinking about and ensure good earths everywhere.
If you follow those instructions it will work.
