Electrical help

[TRACKMKIII]

I just needed the diagram of the fuse postions down in the driver side kick panel. I also wanted to know if someone has a picture or can tell me where the end of the battery cable goes, because I believe mine is set up wrong. In my car the cable is screwed into the fender as a ground. It just looks wrong to me! Thanks for anyhelp!!

The battery negative goes both to the block and the fender. Big wire to block, small to fender.

I went out side and took a look and it seems as if the big wire that goes to the block was cut some how. The car starts and all (most) of the electical devices work properly. Will the cut wire cause a problem later on?

Quite possibly. You'd get some sort of serious short most likely.

Ill get you a pic of the kick panel fuse location here in a second.


Here ya go:

Your car runs off a computer so you tell me? Every engine needs to be grounded properly and yours isn't. Bottom line: fix it. And be sure the small ground wire at the back of the head to the firewall on the pax side is there.

Thanks for the picture trydew and thanks for all the input every one. Also I was wondering if some one would give me a picture of the stock negative battery cable, because it looks like I have after market battery terminals and I don't see a way to connect the heavy guage battery cable to it properly. So I will probably park the car until its fixed.
