Start with a circuit diagram & a test light. There is is no common link between those 2 circuits other than the fusebox itself. The headlights (except the the hi-beam flasher) are supplied thru fuse 1 & the brake lights are supplied thru fuse 3. Dr Terry Edited by user Wednesday, 22 April 2026 11:13:12 AM(UTC)

If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0 |

Have a a wiring diagram and multimeter
Going to spend time on it tommorow
I can see where the fusable link is
My question is if that link is broken would I get no electric in the car?

My question is if that link is broken would I get no electric in the car? If the fusible link has gone open circuit it cuts all power to every circuit, except the main starter lead. One other thing, when chasing electrical harness faults especially fuses & switches etc, it's better to use a test light, not a multimeter. A multimeter will lead you astray, because it's not reading 12V under load. Use a good old fashioned incandescent lest light, not a LED one. The LED type will do the same as a multimeter. Dr Terry |
