so my 80 amp main fuse blew and is apparently welded into the block in the engine bay. ****** thing wont come out, what am i to do now, or where would i find a used one somewhere? thanks a lot guys.

it comes out, theres 2 small panel door openings on both sides of the fuse cluster.. 2 10mm bolts on 1 side and 1 on the other, take out all 3 of them (MAKE SURE THE BATTERY IS DISCONNECTED) and it comes out. its not a snap in job like the rest of them

 

well that makes sense now, i havent been in there in a while, i shoulda knew that!
thanks

 

ahahahahahahahaah lmfao this is some funny ****. make a huge list of mods, and all these kewl things on your car, and you cant remove a fuse... PRICELESS!!

hey, some people never have to remove that fuse and some cars don't have the mains bolted in like that...just make sure you disconnect your battery before messing with that fuse

 

i had a hard time with that fuse too! Its not really obvouse that there is bolts behind those flaps!

 

does anyone know how much these fuses cost?

 

hey, i did the same thing, busted up the fuse pretty bad too. then i found the bolts, and couldnt get them loose, so i used an impact wrench, which shatterd the entire block into little pieces

 

Between $2 - $4.

 

haha,i blew that fuse today too,and my friend tried to pull it out with a pair of vice grips and broke the thing all to peices and the of all people,my GIRLFRIEND has to suggest that maybe it;s bolted in behind those flaps. So we pry them open and guess what. We look like ******* morons.

 

hahah well, i knew about taking out the 80A fuse but i did install all my parts then car wouldnt start nothing, then i check the fuse, and the MAIN FUSE HAD TO HAVE BLOWN...DAMNIT

 

hahaha i did this too!
used the vice grips and smashed it to bits, damn, but i just wrapped some fuse wire round the terminals and now its all good again
