SOURCE: starter enabler fuse blows which means the starter motor does not work until fuse is changed

It is possible that the starer is pulling too much amperage- 1st thing you need to do is find out what if any other consumers are on that circuit, 2nd you need to find out how much amperage is being consumed by the starter. 3rd test you wires most likely if a wire problem it is the heavy hot wire on the starter or the back of the alternator has a loose retaining nut

SOURCE: 93 corolla 1.8 No start Blown ignition fuse

I had a prolem like this one time a while back. what i did was got the wiring diagram and checked everything that was running through that 30 amp fuse. on the one i was working on it ended up being an injector wire pinched under the valve cover and it didnt short out till the car was driven til it warmed up and expanded after the valve cover gasket was changed. hope this helps!

SOURCE: 2000 Volkswagen Passat will not start

THIS ONE IS COMPLICATED ONE RELAY AND SO MANY PROBLEMS CAN CAUSE THIS PROBLEM
1) THE RELAY YOU ARE HAVING TROUBLE WITH ON THE FUSE BOX COVER THERE SHOULD BE A CHART OF WHAT FEEDS WHAT WHAT DOES THE LID SAY IT FEEDS
2) TRY PULLING THE FUSE TO THE SUN ROOF AND DOOR LOCKS AND REPLACE THE RELAY IF IT STAYS IN YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH ONE OR THE OTHER. THIS COULD BET A MOTOR PROBLEM ON THE SUN ROOF OR A DOOR LATCH PROBLEM.
WE WILL TAKE THIS ONE STEP AT A TIMEIF THIS DOES NOT WORK, E-MAIL ME AT [email protected]
IF THIS DOS'NT WORK I'LL HELP YOU THE BEST I CAN WITH OUT SEEING THE CAR. THIS IS ONE OF THOSE PROCESS OF ELIMINATION REPAIRS AND TO TAKE IT TO A REPAIR SHOP THIS IS GOING TO BE EXSPENSIVE

SOURCE: 2002 GMC Envoy, i put the key in ignition and

Ignition switch and neutral safety switch. Next time it happens wiggle thekeys in the ignition switch and try to restart.If it starts its probably the ignition switch. Then locate neutral safety switch on brake pedal and put meter on B+ wire from switch to starter relay and see if you get B+ on the would -be- crank. Next locate B+ wire from starter relay to starter hook a meter to it and see if you get B+ on the would -be crank.
Where ever B+ is missing is your problem.

Hi..where is the electric window fuse located on a 1994 Toyota hi ace 2.4 petrol ? thanks. RHD

all windows dead, not told, and and down both dead?
did not check all fuse first even the GAUGE fuse. blown?
relay marked MAIN ,is missing or not energized, if not , windows will be dead.

NO RHD HERE NOR HI ACE IN USA.
SO NO BOOKS.
MOST CARS HAVE CB FOR THAT A LARGE AUTORESETTING CIRCUIT BREAKER .
YES THE FUSE BOXES ON RHD CARS ARE NOT LIKE LHD.
WISE YOU ARE STATING IT AND RARE HERE.
THERE ARE 3 WAYS TO GET THIS DATA.
BUY THE SERVICE MANUAL
FROM DEALER
OR GOOGLE IT.<<<my post is only based off google finds. period.
OR LOOK FOR CB IN ALL FUSE BOXES. THEY ARE LABELED. ON 99%

Are all windows dead for up and down.?
all door controls switches dead, for windows, left and right cab?
if yes ,sure the CB is bad.
car engine starts and runs ok
all other electrics work ok. ???? is the gauges in cluster working too?
just windows all dead?
back in 94 ,no BCM brain here, just wires ,switches and fuses. (and win motors)

get the truck serviced in a shop.the guy with a voltmeter there knows what to do .
for sure.
watch out some TOY use fuseable link for windows. get the manual first.
on some years that old. or CB.30-amp./

window motors use lots of power. all windows up (button) on ICEd up day
uses huge currents.
so the power feed has huge relay, there. called PWR relay
and a huge fuse feeding windows controls.
this current high does not pass through the ignition switch wrecking it
'it sources from PWR relay. safe and sure.

30amps rated or more. this relay and its fuse.
Hi ACE.
example 1.

top right fuse a CB 30amp
the left fuse is GAUGE fuse, if blown MAIN relay is dead. 7.5amp fuse
i key on and check 12vdc at relay pin 3 below. output side.
if dead, then bad fuses or relay ,. or bad ground left.

Is there a second fuse for AC on 99 Passat? I check the inside fuse it is ok.

There is a relay switch (little black box) in the fuse compartment under the hood. It pulls straight out. Look for a similar relay switch marked "headlights" in the compartment and "swap" relays. If the a/c/ works and the lights quit, then the relay is bad ($12 AutoZone).

Good luck!

I am trying to locate the relay panel on my 99 vw passat 2.8 gls. My electric cooling fan was broken so I replaced it last night and tested it on the battery to verify it works- but it is not getting power...

open the drivers door .. on the end of the dash (normally covered by the door) is a panel .. pop off that panel and the fuses are there .. of course fix the problem that caused the wires to burn then locate the fuse .. not easy since they give you a really cryptic guide to the fuses .. of course you should be able to see one thats blown .. if you cant read the gliphs then call a dealer to find out which fuse is which .. the relays are also behind the fuses .. again not marked except by big numbers stamped on each but no guide .. there are two fans .. the driver side is the cooling fan ..the passenger side is the air conditioner .. that is operated by a pressure switch in front of the condenser (front of car under gril on passenger side) .. .. likely a coolant temp switch operates the cooling fan .. actually i can check that if you need more info ..
