Hi all,
I'm looking at replacing the original "fuse board" on my 1973 Commer with something a bit more contemporary (aka safe!) with individual fuses for each circuit, lights, indicators etc. I've had a look in the workshop manual and I'm struggling to see the wood from the trees.
Has anyone replaced one of these before? The present set up is quite primitive with everything running through two fuses, I'm struggling to work out which wires are the lives from the main battery (assuming there are two?) and whether I can attach both lives to the positive of my new fuseboard (see pictures below). I'm not sure if the wires i've got are the original colours but I'm assuming the two browns will be lives.
Any advice very welcome!
Many thanks,
Angus
