What type of fuse is used in the INEOS?

[TheDocAUS]

EDIT: a revised up to date description of the fues can be found here.

Can someone tell me the type of fuse used on the INEOS. Looking at pictures I would guess either a Micro2 Fuse or Micro3 Fuse, but that is just a guess.

Are you a prepper?

 

[TheDocAUS]

No, just making sure I have the correct spare fuses.

Earlier in life I had spare fuses in the car. The only problem was the car did not use that size fuse.

Plus they were cheap eBay and Amazon fuses, which can be dangerous. So I am a lot more careful about fuses these days.

Good strategy. keep up with the current technology.......

I have a box of mixed fuses from the 60s to the nows. In case someone else needs them!
I'm careful with electrons. Wouldn't want to release the smoke from its casing!

No worries... you can get replacement smoke...

Don't let the smoke out . As AvE usually says

These fit in the Littelfuse holders

Can you change a Micro2 and Micro 3 in gloves?

No, but if you used a fuse pulling tool, you probably could.

Midi fuses might be in the setup somewhere but they are not the blade style fuse used in the main fuse box.

I believe this is one of those things you buy AFTER you receive the your vehicle, so you can get it right and not miss anything.

 

[TheDocAUS]

Yes and no. Part of the process is to identify any fuse types I do not have. I may buy them after the car arrives but I will know what fuse type to purchase.

I am also trying to work out fuse box locations, fuse types, busbar locations and other related matters - relevant to any fit out. The INEOS is really different to other vehicles in this respect.

Life is so complicated nowadays. What happened to putting a bit of tin foil (from a chewing gum stick or cigarette packet) and wrapping it around the blown fuse. Or was I the only one trying to set my car on fire.

Or a nail!

Tin foil, it burns out before a nail

As per @Mitchell300 goal, set fire to your vehicle, then nail wins!

There are thee fuse boxes in the INEOS Grenadier (under bonnet, in the cockpit and under the rear seats). The "Interior Electrical Centre" under the rear seats has relays and three types of fuses. First, Micros2 fuses, second Micro fuses and lastly Slotted MCase+ fuses (I think they are slotted). I already have quality spares of Micro2 and Micro blade fuses, I will need to buy Slotted MCase+ fuses in due course.

The Lucas spec. for a slow-blow fuse

I was meant to reply to this earlier, but IA use a 'short fuse' : - deliverable on all current production models!!!
