An often commented on item is that the Hillman imp has no fuses. This is true and shocking at the same time. The very last cars were fitted with basic fusing which was very little too late. Most accidents in an imp wiring wise can be catastrophic.
So here we will map out some ideas for adding basic fuse protection into the wiring with as little intrusion into the loom as we can. There are plenty more mods we could do, fuses are all we will be doing for now.
Part 1 covers from engine bay to interior light and planning
Part 2 covers more planning, horn, lighting, indicators, pawl, wiper motor, ignition, stop lights,
Part 3 stripping the engine bay loom, fitting battery fuses, alternator fuses, new alternator wiring, removing the surplus and tidy up.
Part 4 Finish up the engine bay fuses and ignition fuses, fit the fuses to the wiper motor, make up spade ends using crimping tool, fitting fuse inline with horn feed then test I have not broken anything !
Part 5 Change of plan - fit fuses at ignition switch rather than cut into any wiring or move binnacle
Part 6 Set some fuses and its a wrap
