Wiring and fuses
The various wires from the battery or generator to the
different electric-power consumers are gathered into a
harness network that is arranged in groups. The indivi-
dual wires are color-marked for easy identification
throughout the network.
The wiring connections consist of solderless AMP connec-
tors. Fuses are provided to protect wiring etc, from
abnormally high current intensities (due to short circuits
for instance) and to reduce fire hazards. The fuses are
located in two fuse boxes, one under the engine hood
lid on the left-hand wheel housing and one under the
instrument panel at the left-hand door.
