Coz of my dodgy wiring, I ended up blowing the ignition fuse in the engine bay fuse box. I didn't have a spare and the wrecker's were closed so in my hast to get the car back on the road I went to genuine nissan. After the usual dilemma of talking to holden & ford people for getting a part for an imported vehicle, they got it and it was $25!!!! for a 30amp fuse! I scraped out the money and got my car back but j*sus ch*ist! $25 for a fusible link molded in a bit of plastic???

eek!

well at least you didn't whack a big bit of wire in and cause something else to blow next time (not that I've done that, but I've seen it happen!)

if i were you .. i would have soldered the dodgey fuse together till i could get a cheaper fuse !!! hehe .. 25 bucks .. thats damn expensive ..

my 75amp Alternator fuse only cost 15 bucks.

I blew a bunch of fuses and went to a wrecker and he gave them to me for free...nice bloke!

I got some from the local petrol station for 20c ea =P

only 2 were blown, so grand total of 40c

Yeah, these weren't the normal ones but they were 30amp ones in a special box thing to plug into the fusebox.

they would of been the block shaped ones
