    Default POP Quiz!!

    Who can tell me what this fuse goes to?



    I'm sifting through my schematics right now, and let me say, holy crap!
    When you're not sure where to start looking, this makes it much like the preverbial "needle in the haystack"
    Which begs the question, why the heck would you ever have a needle anywhere near a haystack? But I digress...

    Back to the fuse. It's in line with something that is causing a draw that keeps draining my battery. I'm hoping someone may have some experience with this fuse, and can help me before I start going crazy from staring at schematics all day

    To clarify, this is on my 1993 Suburban K2500, w/7.4

    Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

    Please don't make me beg...

    I think that's the TSCC fuse, which was an option only on certain models of the 1993 Suburban.

    TSCC stands for Time-Space Continium Controler and it plugs into the optional Flux-Capaciter module. It came after a few years of R&D from a crazy old white-haired scientist who did some experiments in the 1980's.

    Shoot! That's the problem. I took the flux capacitor out last week, and threw it away.
    Dang it!

    Wow I didn't even see that coming. What a sarcastic bugger!

    Well aside of the missing flux-capacitor, what else does this fuse go to?

    Is that a 15 amp fuse in there? I was thinking washer fluid pump.

    No, it's a 20 amp, sorry should have posted that earlier. But thanks for the suggestion, I'll check that now.

    However that's not it. washer pump seems to run off wiper fuse.

    Keep the suggestions coming please

    When you follow those grey wires are they going back into cabin?

    They go into the middle of a big fat covered loom. It's hard to see which way the wires are running either toward the cabin, or toward the battery. But I shall poke around some more

    One might wonder why that fuse is all by itself under the hood. Maybe it's something that needs to be checked quickly with the hood open? Something to do with emmisions control? Maybe ABS?
