No power at accy in fuse block
So yesterday I was testing some connections on my radio. I was using the 1 wire orange pin connectors at the fuse block. I accidentally touched it to the dash trying to crawl out from under it. I noticed today my clock and overhead light don't work. They're both plugged into the "Battery accessory" plugs at the bottom of the block with the orange 1 wire connectors. Is there a fuse for that? It says battery + and the book doesn't list anything. Everything else on the truck works.

Re: No power at accy in fuse block
The fuse marked Radio should be the one your looking for.

Re: No power at accy in fuse block
I just had the same thing happen last week. On my 79 the dome light is on the horn fuse. That is where I'd check first.

Re: No power at accy in fuse block
If this is the orange wire your talking about, it should be the 20 amp fuse right above it.

Re: No power at accy in fuse block
Those 2 columns of BAT sockets are powered through (and proctected by) the 20 amp fuse labeled HORN/DIM.
It is the top fuse - just below the shunt - on the far left column of fuses. Never mind the above that is for an 85+. But on an 81, the BAT stabs are still hot through the 20 amp HORN/DM fuse Last edited by chengny; 09-01-2013 at 06:24 PM. |

Re: No power at accy in fuse block
Success! Horn didn't work. Fuse blown. Clock works now Didn't know it ran off the horn fuse. Overhead light still no go but the bulb is dark so it's probably just blown. No big since pass. door is the only door that turns it on. Driver side has no switch just a big rust hole where a switch would be.
