Default Fuse box help

Hi all,

I just checked my relay's as my heater blower isn't working and the fuse box is burnt out and this particular relay was melted in, how hard is it to change the fusebox?


Cheers

If thats an Escort 5 mate, Easy .. Just take care to note down exactly what multiplug is plugged in where. Also, make sure the jumpers fitted are the same(transferred over if necessary) to new box.
If you want the pdf spec file for this car, drop me a PM.

a mate of mine has an FRST we changed the fuse board on it by cutting one out of an XR2i in a scrappy. (undo a couple of screws there should be enough room to drop it down and butcher the whole lot out) then cutting the wires one by one on your car and soldering in the same colour one by one. So not hard (ie not a dashboard out job) but it does take ages unless your a soldering genius.

I had to change fuse box on my mate's frst mk2, we used a fiesta xr2 box, and transfered all wires 1 by 1 took about 2.5 hours in the rain , but does anyone have a diagram or picture of where the relays go and what size fuse goes where, coz my mate pulled all these before i got to the job, .
