Reply to "Replacement Fuse Box"

lf-tp2511Member

Now that I've got Doug calmed down, some advice for others who could appreciate a better functioning fuse box, but haven't reached critical mass quite yet.

Clean all the fuse terminals. Fine steel wool, Dremel with a small wire brush. Pinch them closer together. This will help some.

If you still are using the ceramic fuses with the aluminum metal fusible links, strongly consider upgrading to the no-longer-made but still found-in-old-stock all glass Buss GBC fuses. This will go a long way to improving things, since the aluminum and the brass fuse holders are not friendly with each other.

If you can't find the glass GBC fuses, look for the newer GBC ceramic fuses that no longer use aluminum, but a more compatible brass fusible link.

And if you really want the glass GBC fuses but can't find them in your home town (CAUTION:shameless plug following) I can sell you some of the NOS 8, 15, and 25 amp ones I scrounged up here in Fresno (wasn't easy).
