I'm going to go ahead and say yes it goes there but don't come down here and kill me if your car explodes.

yes, that power switch connects the small fuse to the large one by the driver's side strut tower.

I know I just took mine apart...the wire is about 12" long or shorter, pretty stiff and wrapped.

hope this helps...

The wire on the other side of the fuse comes from your starter.

You 12v batt goes to the stater..

so 12v to starter---starter to fuses---fuse to alternator---same fuse to other fuse.

hope this helps

yup that wire goes there. i believe that white fuse is the main fuse which is 120 amp. i blew mine the other day so i am positive that, that is where it goes. also just as an fyi if you blow the main fuse you gotta unscrew those wires to get it out as the bolts actually hold the fuse in place.
