Still in my first month of ownership and sorting out electrical gremlins. It would be helpful if someone may have a scan or image of the fuse-block layout and fuse rating diagram.

So far I've recovered dash lights the gas gauge, idiot lamps and other failed circuits. Seems someone broke off the bottom of the fuse block where the fuse labeling is missing. I've found the brake fuse (20A) socket was beyond repair so I relocated the brake lamp load wire to the lower left most (20A) fuse. I used a tap collar slipped over the existing fuse. Problem is, I'm not sure what other circuit the fuse is also managing? The block lettering is gone!

May have to ditch the block and swap in a modern style. The fuse copper clamps seem to be too crusty to trust 'em.

You do have the Chassis Service Manual, right?

Thanks MD. Um, that would be no on having a chassis manual. Should you have a source and title for one, please reveal it!

Looks like I tapped a normally hot circuit (Dome) for the brake lights. The additional load should be fine.
