Fuse hunt

[jburgessx2]

Well, I'm replacing the stereo in the overhead panel. I've never seen such a
rats nest of wires in my life and not a wire tie to be found. So, I spent a
good hour sorting the wires, wire tied them together as needed and installed the
stereo. In the shuffle, I guess the hot wire must of grounded because it lost
power. I put a tester on it and it's no longer hot. I pulled the Blue Box and
went through the wiring diagrams. It appears that wire goes to the front load
center on the left. I pulled that panel and can't seem to locate any fuses.
The drawing shows fuses, but I can't find them.

Have I gone blind? Did I miss something? Or, is the drawing wrong? I do have
an 85 PT40 but the drawing is for a 36. I suppose someone could have changed
the drawings somewhere along the line.

Any idea on where the fuse may be located? Anyone with an 85 PT40 ever had fuse
issues?

As always, thanks.

On the drivers side, over head cabinets go back to the last small cabinet
in the Salon. Open it and you should find 2 large solenoids, relays circuit
breakers and behind the breakers, towards the wall are the fuses you seek.
This is in the same area as your electronic master switch.

Safe travels,

Ralph,

Thanks a bunch. I didn't look in that cabinet but that's the exact fuse panel I
was look for.
