Went to put in fuse 8 in my 75 Bay and it sparked and burnt out, hence why it was probably missing? Any suggestions as I have no idea, and I want to try and get the internal lights working and the manual states fuse 8 runs these. Auto electrician maybe? Any links or posts? I did notice that the larger fuses (3 prong) that are under the main fuse box are missing from the 3rd to 5th. Could be a earth problem, couple of wires out and under the dash 3 one with power which I wanted to run the stereo from. Also noticed the hazard is not working.

Cheers guys slowley getting there trial and error.

Took the bus down to Autospark at Greenwood and spoke to a young guy down there called Mark. I wanted them to find the fault and check a couple of lose wires and sort some live wires for the planned stereo project. Left the car for the day and come back to find the lights working as well as hazard, fault with fuse was lose wire in the roof that would short out when it touched the roof. So first issue ticked off. Found that the guys added a nice little fuse box next to the original for two additional items and they had set it up with all the wiring for the stereo. Great job and recommend them, at it only cost $100 in which $40 was parts and $10 GST so not to bad all in all.

Cheers

Chris
