I ordered this fuse which is identical to the other fuses link deleted.......... not allowed _Links its yellow and rated at 60amps I tried to pry the old fuse out and it broke now the pieces from this old broken fuse are slightly different and the prongs seem different?? what Im left with is 2 different damaged prongs hanging out! 1 is that fuse supposed to be in there permanently? 2 Does anyone know where I can obtain the right fuse? (part number etc) 3 If I've wrecked this thing completely Is it possible to get another fuse box and put it in there, like just snip the wires and reconnect 4 Can i use a quick fix electrical fuse holder in the meantime rated at 60amps like mentioned in the fusible link thread Any help would be greatly appreciated As im gonna get some parking tickets Many Thanks Paul (This post was edited by Hammer Time on Apr 1, 2012, 7:39 PM) nickwarner Veteran / Moderator Apr 1, 2012, 7:24 PM Post #2 of 4 (4876 views) Re: Urgent problem with a fusible link on a 1987 toyota van Sign In I assure you that you don't want to be snipping wires and changing an entire fuse box. If you can find a fuse holder thats actually rated for that level of amperage and used it as a stand in to get this off the road I can't see a problem with it, but wouldn't consider it a permanent fix. Some brands did like to install special fuses of a style most stores don't have. I think a call to your local Toyota dealer wouldn't be a bad idea to try to locate the proper part. If you try the bypass with a fuse holder, make very sure the connections can't possibly ground. You can and will start wires on fire and may burn the van up. electricpostcards New User Apr 2, 2012, 7:51 PM Post #3 of 4 (4847 views) Re: Urgent problem with a fusible link on a 1987 toyota van Sign In I got it, that fuse was bolted in place the screws are hidden on the top and bottom of the fuse box. thanks man In Reply To nickwarner Veteran / Moderator Apr 3, 2012, 6:48 PM Post #4 of 4 (4837 views) Re: Urgent problem with a fusible link on a 1987 toyota van Sign In Glad to hear you got it sorted out.   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
