Hi guys

As the tittle says my 3rd battery fuseboard has gone on my 05 vrs I know this is any common issue

Can anyone shed any light on situation why or how this happens as I can't afford 2 keep replacing theses

Thanks dan

Have you replaced the alternator cable?? The cable corrodes internaly and causes a high resistance that heats the cable up, this in turn melts the fuse box

Spot on, the fusebox wont randomly melt for no reason.

I know from experiance, about a week after reading a post on here about it mine went, diagnosed it straight away.

hi guys ive changed the earth on the battery and seem 2 of worked

and tempory fixed the board to see if this was the issue

manys for the help

You will need to change the alternator cable if the alternator fuse has given up, just a word of advice.

Yeah I'm going to on thursday when I order a new board

How much are they and how hard are to fit ?

Thanks dan

Coast me under £80 for the fuse box and the alternator cable, took me under 30 mins to fit it. It's abit fiddly to get the cable to alternator and i left one clip undone as it was really hard to get to
