7.1 Electrical System

7.1.1 Fusing locations and functions

There is a 30A fuse located about 0.3m from the battery terminal in the cab harness. Assuming the
harness is fitted to battery, it can be easily

overlooked as it’s not

visible. All other fuses are within the

clear Perspex cover in the ECU Box and their functions are explained in Table 9.

Figure 68: ECU Box with Fuse locations

The fuse box shown in the figure above is located on the inside of the left hand chassis rail, located
behind the oil tank.
