Re: TC Fuses

Hi Nick,RF 95 has A1, A2, A3 and A4 out going terminals.
A1  -  terminal is supplying to ignition and light switch. You can split in two or more groups if you like. For example head light group and side and tail light group.
A2  - terminal is only for horn.
A3 -  terminal supply is via ignition switch, to ign.coil, SU pump.
A4 -  terminal supply is for wiper, fog light, dash light, map reading light, brake light etc. Here you can make smaller groups to minimise the circuit failure. I like to instal the additional fuse inside below the dash board for easy access.It is your toy. So do what you like that suits your needs.

Hi All,
I am in the process of re-wiring TC7142.
Has anyone any experience of adding additional fuses to give extra protection? If so, which circuits and fuse rating were used?

I could put a fuse box on the back of the tool box where it would be accessible yet out of sight.
Regards
Nick

Mine shorted when I was refitting the dash. The two plastic rings just crumbled. I was going to make something as I wasn't paying 58 + VAT when I remembered the Octagon club. 19.00 delivered.  Norman VeronaLa Foie, 49520, Noellet, FranceTel: 0033 (0)2 41 92 73 44Mob: 0033 (0)7 70 70 23 79Web: www.frenchblat.comMG Midget TC 10178  From: mg-tabc@yahoogroups.com [mailto:mg-tabc@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Tweed lizandtweed@yahoo.co.uk [mg-tabc]

Put a fuse in the line to the rear lights. The badly made connectors can drop out and contact the metal body, causing a short.Guess how I know that.
