I just pulled the fusebox from the footwell to start process of relocating it to behind the drivers seat (battery is already in the boot).

I have inadvertently pulled a wire off inside the back of the fusebox.

It is a Yellow/Red wire4. I believe it goes back into the yellow connector block but there are 2 places it could go.
(nb its is in a bundle of 5 wires with all the others in the bundle going to the yellow block)

Anyone know which slot it goes into ?

It goes into pin 87la.
It then connects to fuse 5 (not used) and from there to relay 2 (not used).

So all in all of no consequence. TVR wiring, got to love it.

ETA Just noticed your yellow connector has 2 more wires in it than my info.
2 pinks are cooling fans.
blue/red is dip beam.
Yellow/red not used.

Also of note this relay (2) is ideal to re-wire as a start relay. With the addition of heavier gauge wire down to the starter solenoid solves some of the issues found at hot start.

Useful thanks. I have a full rewire of the starter circuit already so this info comes in handy for a future install.

Original issue now sorted and everything is working fine.
