Fuse Panel and Wiring Puzzle
1981 Spider 2000 fuel injected
Trying to find out if my fuse panel and wires are correct
first picture shows that there are NO fuses in block #N or #M ..Missing?
2nd picture shows the wires connected to the TOP pins (single Row of pins)
There is a yellow jumper wire connecting wires #1 and #2 together (Pink to Blue) Factory? or Bubba Mod?
There are No wires connected to pins 4,6,8,12 (12 has no fuse) (however 4,6,8 do have fuses) but with no wires ?
3rd picture shows wires connected to the double row LOWER Pin connections (with the top row wires removed for clarity)
there are wires to 15 pins but no wire to #12 (a connection that has no fuse in #N )
also I found there is a Stray Red wire not connected and a stray White wire not connected. Are these 2 wires supposed to be connect to fuse pins or do they belong somewhere else?

I wondered about this too, and then it occurred to me: The letters J and K are not part of the traditional Italian alphabet. Nor are W, X, and Y. How cool is that?!SpiderGuy wrote: {funny how they skipped the letters J and K}
More on your wiring issues later.

Re: Fuse Panel and Wiring Puzzle
Thanx Bryan, I re-posted the pictures and description after I re-numbered and lettered all the fuse and wire connections ..my original post had them all backwards and upside down inside out..I did not see the micro script on the panel until I had it clear out of the car to clean up all the brass connections.18Fiatsandcounting wrote:I wondered about this too, and then it occurred to me: The letters J and K are not part of the traditional Italian alphabet.

Re: Fuse Panel and Wiring Puzzle
I think the white wire goes on the empty fused terminal on fuse 1. The light blue /white wire is already on the other fused terminal for fuse 1. The pink wire is the feed side of fuse 1
I think the red wire goes to the fused side of fuse 12. It is for the right hand electric window. Fuse 11 is for the left hand electric window. If your car does not have electric windows these fuses are not used.

OK Thanx, My car does not have electric windows so that might explain not needing fuses in ( #N fuse 12 wire) or (#M fuse #11 wire)
