Default Connecting to fuse box

Anybody know what kind of connector I need to plug into the bottom of a HD fuse box? I want to connect a tach to the unused "P&A" fuse, but the danged box is in there so snugly that while I could get a wire/terminal plugged into the bottom, I can't turn the danged thing upside down to see what sort of terminal fits in there.

Thanks folks. BrianK

Brian,

I did the same thing and I think the correct terminal came with the tach kit, but I can't remember what kind it was. I'll look for the instructions and see if it shows what kind it was.

Brian,

My instructions just say to insert the terminal on the end of the Orange/White wire in the empty side of the P&A IGN fuse cavity in the fuse block. One side already has a terminal and wire in it, the other side is empty. The instructions don't show what kind of terminal it is. I have the electrical and service manuals, I'll look there and see if they say anything.

The electrical diagnostics manual gives the following part numbers for the fuse block terminals but no pictures:

Terminal part number 72279-04 for 14-16 gauge wire
72286-04 for 12-14 gauge wire
72309-04 for 16-18 gauge wire

Maybe the dealer will have the terminals and you can see what they look like. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Jim

Jim, thanks very much. This is helpful, and it was very thoughtful of you to go to the trouble to look it up. - BrianK
