Problem for Toyota 1986 Pickup 4WD

Blowing 80 amp fusible link for Battery.




By woozzer125 on Jul 28, 2008

" "
When replacing an old battery the 80 amp fusible link for the battery was blown. The case for the link can house 2 fuses one for the battery (Top) and one for diesel (bottom). I only have the fuse for the battery since my truck isn't diesel. There are 4 wire sets two are white and connect to the left side and 2 red and blue wires on the right side. One is a single wire the other is a double wire. What I need to know is which set is bolted into the fuse itself and which is bolted into the empty fuse slot? I didn't think to look at the location of the red and blue wires coming into the right side of the link when removing the wires to replace the fuse. I have tried both locations and continue to blow the fuse. At $12.00 each it is getting very expensive.

-   I'm having the same issue. I had just replaced my alternator since it was not charging. I had the truck running after the replacement for 20 mins. I had shut it down and after ten mins the fuse blew. I checked my connections and cleaned them. Double checked the wires for damage, none found. Everything seemed ok so i replaced the fuse without the battery terminals connected. When putting the cables on, positive first then neg, the leads sparked and the fuse blew almost instantly. Any Ideas?-   Guest

this link may help you guys. You'll have to check a few to find what you need but I suspect, if you can interpret the drawings, you'll narrow it down, otherwise take a copy to your mechanic, and it might help him.
