Does anyone have a picture of the under bonnet fuse box?

[TheDocAUS]

I am writing up an introductory guide of the various fuses used in the IG. You can read it here.

Does anyone have a photo of the under bonnet fuse box, with its lid open showing the fuses? Please upload the photo and I will add it to the guide. Thanks.

Photos above are of a RHD, yours looks like a LHD. Have you checked on the corresponding opposite side?

Well done you just found the sixth fuse box.

You all think it is possible that under the coolant reservoir is my "under the bonnet fuse box?"
Trialmaster, winch, LHD
Didnt want to disassamble any further.

Oh. How shall a blown fuse be replaced?

That's a really bad joke.

Now I understand what they mean with "Made in France".

Access from below? Seems unlikely but not sure what kind of alternative there is?

 

[MACS]

So far we are not sure if it is the fusebox. Might be something different.

If it is, you would simply unbolt the 2 (3?) bolts holding the expansion tank in place, and there should be enough slack win the hoses to "flip it" to one side to access what is below

I think this is were the expression, it's done with mirrors, comes in.

A coolant expansion tank right on top of a fuse box...that's a Friday afternoon idea if I ever heard one.

please all stay on hold.

will investigate fiurther.

Well the arrowed part on this is also odd:

If it's fed off the MTA connector that also has the jump start brass terminal then it's either permanently live at one end or voltage sensitively live at the other, so one slip of the screwdriver is a nice short circuit.

Yes, it is confirmed by workshop. It is the under bonnet fusebox.
One needs to remove the coolant reservoir To get access.
Phantastic design!

Look, a landrover Defender PAS fluid bottle

Phantastic design!

I was hopeful that my Renault and Citroen experiences were finally a thing of the past.

So which fuses are they?
Prone to blow , or only if people muck about with factory wiring?
Anyway , it's no big deal to move a coolant tank should for some strange reason a fuse blows.
