Fusebox
 
Has anyone ever changed one on a 80 Rx-7? Just wondering..

Never changed one, but i had the whole entire electrical out of one I think its all intergrated with the harness... Why you want to change it?

it is wired to the harness, but i know that it can be changed.
just donot forget were all the wires go to. i was actually thinking about changing it to a seond gen fuse box, just so i would be able to use those style fuses

i blew a fuse today while tearing the interior down. i know, forgot to undo the battery. anyway i laughed when we pulled out these glass fuses. i was thinking about switching it over to a rally style circuitbreaker set. wire flip switches to the center console.

that would actually be cool.. get rid of fuese altogether

Someone changed the fuse box in my car to a newer one. It uses those plastic fuses intsead of the glass tube ones.

lucky you.. that is what i am going to do when ever i get around to it.. the second gens have those newer style fuses, so i figured i would switch to that.

it should be to hard as there aren't really that many.

10. you probably would need a larger area than the fuse box, but go too.. let me know how it turns out

circuitbreaker setup is a good idea, but if i was going to change them i would go to glass fuses over the blade fuses. because the there is a lot more contact area on glass fuse than a blade fuse, so if the blade fuse got/have a dirty/bad connection there is more chance the circuit falure. if get my drift?

riffraff 03-30-02 11:33 PM

i didnot realise that.. thanks for the info dj
