| i thought they were only relays...controling various things, the cooling fans are controlled by relays under there. You really only need 1 cooling fan...i ran on 1 for about 6 months until i ran the diag and noticed the relay for it was blown. |

its the fuses next to the battery in the rectangler box to clear on confusion. The fused mark ENG i think was blown. I'm not sure it was blown after taking a closer look at it just the element was brown and was thinner than it was suppose to be. I changed the fuse around with the HEGO fuse which had the same rating fuse.
So what does a distorted fuse element mean? Any ill effects? |

did it happen while you were driving or stationary? i had this on my car, my atm has LPG (but not for long) and it was found that the main injector cable was pinched hence why the fuse had blown  |

| So put a multimeter across it and see if it's intact. |
