How to Replace the Fusible Link | 3rd Gen Toyota Pickup

My Fusible link blew (Main Fuse / 80amp Fuse) popped on Bobcat and to replace this main fuse is a little more complicated than merely pulling the fuse straight out.
To remove this fuse, you need to disconnect the fuse box from the inner fender. Unclip the bottom of the fusebox by pushing on the two tabs then pull it forward to expose the wires.
From there you need to push on the tab to release the fusible link and push it down. This will expose the bolts so you can remove them.
Now you can replace the fuse.

Thanks!! I would never think of going underneath that fuse box. This is one of the most useful videos in the history of you tube. Keep on filming.

[@SnailTrail4x4]

Thanks for letting me know

[@RallyDriver55]

Same me and my dad took it off, from the top (not knowing we broke it off) we went around everywhere looking for the fuse. Till I saw this video 😅 we found out we broke the prongs off. This video saved me. Thank you so much. ( 95 Toyota 4Runner)

I blew my 80A fuse with my truck (88 T4R) in rising flood waters desperately trying to jump it with a marine battery, pretty sure i had the terminals right since it initially started but maybe that battery has too many amps. Hoping the small town parts store has this link and that nothing else is wrong with it! Thanks for the video.

[@melvincortes78]

[@alanlovatt5592]

Bang on, ground wire had gone bad, the one going to the inside of the pass side wing which caused the fusible link to blow.

[@misaelmunoz2647]

Thank you

[@SnailTrail4x4]

You're welcome Misael

[@patrickgraven457]

In my experience with the fuse box I was able to pull the fuse holder out by depressing that tab (on the link side) with a flathead and it slides out pretty easy.

[@SnailTrail4x4]

Yeah, I wasn't that fortunate. But as you probably saw it went in easily.

[@xt600tx]

i tried that aswell and the plastic got off and the metal is still in....

[@BLUE-jc2gp]

Did the fuse throw a code or did you test it?

[@kidrio777]

Hi there, thanks for the video. Can't find 80 amp fuse anywhere, can you please let me know where you got part. I have a 1989 Toyota truck, pretty similar, blown 80 amp fuse. Thanks you!

[@SnailTrail4x4]

I got mine from Napa auto parts

[@alejandroflores4103]

[@SnailTrail4x4]

Maybe it goes up

[@alejandroflores4103]

Bro I finally did it i didn't wanna break anything and i wasn't using too much force thanks for your video it help

[@SnailTrail4x4]

[@spelunkerd]

With a such a poor supply from Toyota, we gotta wonder if dealers across America are normally using aftermarket fusible links. Wouldn't it be great if we could assume they pass on those savings to their customers?

[@lennymora8458]

I got m I got my 4Runner stuck I have to change the starter and the battery when I went to go hook up

[@gavanwhatever8196]

For my 2002 hilux the fuse box has 4 tabs inside. Push those back with a flat bladed screw driver and the fuse panel will lift right out.

[@lemonsaregoodrightl2854]

Hey where does the white wire the thick one go

[@mosephfistergoodntave]

Does Any of the wires from that fuse go to Any post on your battery? Asking for a friend

[@SnailTrail4x4]

I don't know if have to look

[@sergioruiz8886]

friend, what is the name of that piece? 5:24 It broke, and I don't know how to get it

[@SnailTrail4x4]

The fuse you can get from the auto parts store... The black part, I'm not sure, a wrecking yard?

[@Edp-tj2ch]

hey man can you tell me which one is the cigarette lighter fuse

[@SnailTrail4x4]

If I recall it's in the driverside kick panel

[@Edp-tj2ch]

Yea I found it but thanks bro

De que son esos fusibles

[@a1thebarber192]

My 92 pickup 22re keeps blowing out my injector relay after a while. Its looks like it's not making good connectivity and the relay keeps getting hot. Should I replay the entire relay box?

[@SnailTrail4x4]

Maybe use some sand paper to clean the contact points first, and if that still fails then maybe than you can replace it

[@timetryp422]

What are the symptoms of a bad fusible link? Total loss of power or partial loss?

[@SnailTrail4x4]

total loss of power
