CAUTION
Since the ground side fusible link protects the battery

short circuit before beginning this procedure to pre-
vent another fusible link from melting. Failure to repair
the short circuit which caused the fusible link to melt
will result in the new fusible link melting.

Loosen the bolt on the battery cable
clamping bracket. This will allow the
