RE: No Power.......Stumped
ok this is what it says in my haynes manual about the fusible link: Some circuits are protected by fusible links. The links are used in circuits whire are not ordinarily fused, such as the ignition circuit.
In addition to the conventional type of fusible link which is located in the wiring harnes, there is also cartridge type fusible links located in the engine compartment fuse blocks that are similair to larger fuses,and, after disconnectin the negative batter cable are simplyunplugged and replaced by a unit of the same amerage. Some fusible links are held in place by a screw which must be loosened before removing the link. Comventional type fusible links cannot be repaired, a new link of the same size wire should be installed in its place. Procedure as follows: a) Dissconnect the cable from the negative batter terminal b) Dissconnect the fusbile link from the wiring harness. c) cut the damaged fusible link out of the wiring just behind the connector. d) Strip the insulation back approximately 1/2 inch. e) Position the connector on the new fusible link and crimp it into place. f) Use rosin core solder at each end of the new link to obtain a good solder joint. (Not that kind of joint) g) Use plenty of electrical tape arounf the soldered joint. No wires should be exposed. h) Connect the batter ground cabl. Test the circuit for proper operation. I) Pray it works.
If your getting voltage then it shoulnt be the fusible link but its always worth checking.

hahahha I did that on my T/A one time as well.........no it was on 6 V charge the whole duration I was workin on my stang tonight which was about 3 hours.........Battery is fine, I have a battery tester and tested it like 100000 times.

you know testing your battery so much could kill your battery I mean you are using it when you test it. Try re charging it.

sorry I had to.
