Title: Fuse Block Ignition Ports Dead
Post by: wilrob on May 13, 2020, 05:45:25 pm

My fuse block does not have power to the ignition ports on the left side with the key on. I verified power coming out of the brown ignition accessory wire at the ignition switch by the column. Fuse block is not corroded or messed up at all.

Not sure where the power is dying in the circuit?? Can I bypass the fuse block for accessories?

Replace the IGN fuse.  The brown wire is accessory.  Ignition power to the IGN fuse is pink.  IGN 3 from the ignition switch is orange.

Turns out I forgot to put the fuse back in... got one in and everything is back to normal. Guess you really can overlook the easy things. Thanks for getting me back on track BD.
