trunk fuse box (Resolved)

lynyrd · 01-10-2023, 12:02 PM

Hello, can anyone help me?
I have problems with the fuse box which is in the trunk, I disconnected it and I am out of battery.
Can we drive without this connected box, if so the indicators, will the lights still work?
Thank you for your help.

Considering your ECM and Starter fuses are in that box I seriously doubt it starts. Why do you need to unplug it.

Also, the fuel pump/FSCM fuse being there alone guarantees the car won't start without the rear compartment fuse box. Don't ask me how I know

Because I have to go to the garage and the fuse box burnt out, it's unusable.

So, you put the new fuse box in and it burnt again?

Can we just stop with this guy? He's posted multiple threads on this problem. His trunk flooded. Fried the fusebox and likely the BCM or more due to what else?, ELECTRICAL SHORTING! No one here can diagnose these multiple issues, he needs to take it to a repair shop that has the capability, shop manuals, and expertise to fix it! I realize he's in Europe, that's the problem with having a U.S. car someplace where there's no support.

Sorry man, but you keep asking the same questions over and over and everyone has given you many answers. We can't fix it remotely for you!

It's a sad case and I do feel sorry for him.
Hooked up a charger directly to his battery in the trunk, undoubtedly with the best of intentions. Unfortunately, rain got in through the gap and now he has multiple corroded components.

I've been talking back and forth with him and from what I can tell it's beyond just the fusebox. The connectors on the main wiring harness for the car has been damaged from what I can tell as well. I replaced fuses in mine and a couple of the local modules but I ended up having to replace the entire harness because of the level of damage done to multiple wiring lines. I am almost certain he has to do the same. His issue is that they don't have junkyards over there that he could potentially pluck one from. he could also order one but it's hefty with an over 800 dollar cost. Once the fusebox and wiring harness was replaced for me, I finally got my car back running how it's supposed to.

Which module did you replace?

No the new fuse box is not burned, I have not connected it yet.

So what is the game plan?

Hello,
I connected the fuse box, everything works, except the radio, I have no sound for the turn signals, the radio does not turn on, but if I put the reverse gear I have the image of the reversing camera.
The Bose amplifier is also in the trunk it is much higher than the fuse box, I removed it, opened it, there was only a little verdigris on one corner of the circuit board, I cleaned and reassembled.
Do you think it could be the amp if the radio isn't working?

Glad it mostly works.
Probably amplifier damage as you suspect.
I'll have to look at your pictures again. But my recent experience with water-damaged electronics (Hurricane Ian) suggests there can be more damage than you first think.

EDIT: Can't seem to find if you posted pictures of the amp. Here's a thread with a story similar to yours. Hopefully you can replace this amp without dealer software:

Here's a picture of the corroded area of the amp's circuit board, is it possible that just that could short out the amp?
