Title: "Servizi" fuse keeps blowing any ideas?
Post by: Gadge on January 17, 2015, 03:29:03 PM

I maybe getting closer to finding out why I can't get any power to luigi's distributor. The "servizi" fuse (20 amp) keeps blowing soon as I turn the ignition on. I tried it with a 30 amp fuse and that blew aswell so it's obviously shorting somewhere. So the big question is does anyone know where the servizi fuse runs too? Is this linked to the power loss at the distributor?

If anyone knows please help me as I'm useless with electrics and it's the only thing stopping me driving it atm :(

Not sure, but the Servizi fuse does a lot IIRC to do with the windows/washers etc

Edit, just tried to ring you, drop me a text pls. :)

Ok thanks to Dom for steering me in the right direction :D the servizi fuse controls the wipers and washers and sure enough this morning I tried them and they weren't working. The culprit was me, I'ld trapped a wire whislt fixing a new bracket I'ld made. Problem solved :)
