Fuse box location on '75 Mini

Post by Andrew1967 »

Can anyone supply a picture of a circa '75 Mini showing the location of the fuse box please ?

Just refitting the harness and can't work out where the fuse box should go. It seems to want to go to the front of the triangular bracer, on the main part of the inner wing, maybe a bit lower down than a regulator on a Mk1/2 but not as low as the solenoid location for a Mk3 :?

When I took the pick up apart, I took photos of the engine bay with the harness partially removed :roll:

HELP !!

Cheers

Andrew

Hi Andrew My 72 is in the same place about level and inline with clutch slave cylinder just below Dynamo control box but would assume your 75 would be alternator ? so expect loom is slightly different ?
My rather suspect 75 has it above clutch master cylinder ! Which does not suprise :D

Yeah, it is an alternator car Jeremy, so the loom is different.

Not sure why the fuse box was moved though ? The Mk1/2 position up near the bulkhead behind the triangular plate seemed a better place for it.

The '75 sounds like a '76 or later as thats where the 4 fuse box should be :roll:

Will mail tomorrow re your PM :)
