100 amp fuse location

[johncaul]

hello all, can anyone out there let me know where the 100amp fuse in a Tuscan mk2 is? My dash board lights and pod readings are behaving strangely, I understand the 100 amp fuse is often a common culprit and a pretty cheap fix.

Cheers

Unless your battery has discharged, it will not be the 100amp fuse, but the 80 amp in the passenger footwell, or the engine & chassis earths.

In addition to the above, if you have the 'pod' style dash it may be also worth checking the connections going into the circuit boards behind the dash. Mine had a habit of working loose over time which caused the display to break up. Easy to get to, drop the steering column down and towards the seat, remove the two dome nuts at the rear and the two allen screws from the front and the dash can be lifted clear.

There are two connections from the loom; a 25way 'D' type, and, a smaller push in plastic connector towards the top of the pod. The 'back lighting' is fed from a two way connectors off the board. Whilst you are in there make sure there is a rubber spacer between the two circuit boards as the back one is prone to flexing with the weight of the 25way connector, which in turn will break up the display, also check they are not lose in the pod.
