Rear fuse block picture request
 
Anyone have a picture for the rear fuse block on a 911SC? Mine seems to be missing a few things and I'm curious about the wires on the left side.

This is a pic of the engine compartment of my 1980SC, the fuse panel is visible.

Hmm, it seems like in each pic I see the wires on the left are in different positions. I'm not sure what the difference between thick and thin wire is. Hot vs switched?

From my '83. Ignore the fused wire going to the wideband O2 module.

So, I think on the SC the top 2 fuses are bridged on the back side. I guess that's why sometimes the thick wire is in the top spot, sometimes in the middle spot, guess it wouldn't matter.

Mine had thick wire in lowest and thin wire in the middle with no fuse in the middle :-(

Fixing it today (and hopefully putting my new 3.2SS in!!!).

p.s. - when tapping into rear fuse for switched power, wouldn't you want to tap onto right side, after the fuse? Left is the "source" side?

Yes the top 2 are bridged on the left side. I tried tapping on the right side but the left side is only switched all the time. I think the top two on the left are constant hot and bottom is switched IIRC. I can't remember what is on the right side (heater fan relay?) but it was clearly not switched all the time.

Just food for thought... another "while you're in there"... might be a good time to replace the old fuse panel with one of Fred Cook's ATO fuse panels.

Good luck with the install!
