  • (1) Alternator Fusible Link

Description:
Fusible links are designed to protect your car's wiring and electrical components in the event of an electrical surge (such as voltage spikes or current overloads). In extreme cases, proper links can be the difference between a minor inconvenience/repair and the salvage yard! This quality reproduction fusible link connects the alternator and wiring harness. It includes the proper ring terminal on the alternator side, connector on the harness end, and boot to cover the alternator post. Be sure to inspect the connector on your harness for damage as well*. Sold individually. While each car only requires 1 of this link (where equipped), it's generally a good idea to keep a spare fusible link on hand in case of emergency, as you never use regular wire in place of a fusible link (see Fusible Link Safety note below).

Application Note:
This fusible link was not used on all 1970 models. You will need to inspect your specific car's wiring to determine whether you have this fusible link or not. See 12-4331-1 in Related Items if your 1970 model has a fusible link at the starter that does not have a plastic connector housing on the link itself. If your starter fusible link does have a plastic connector housing, see 12-4333-1 instead.

*Harness Connector Note:
The connector housing for the fusible link was first used on 240Zs starting in 1971 model year. That housing was often times added to 1970 models at the starter fusible link as part of a service call and supercession. While not original, we do offer a replacement housing for later models which can be used in place of the original if needed. It can also be used to replace a damaged terminal for the alternator link if preferred; see 12-4354 in Related Items.

Fusible Link Safety:
Fusible Links are much more than a length of wire. They are specifically designed using a special type of wire construction, with special safety insulation made of heat-resistant cross linked CPE (Chlorinated Polyethylene). Using regular wire in place of a fusible link, even in an emergency situation, is extremely dangerous. This is true even if you choose standard wire that is smaller than the circuit, because of the level of fire-resistant insulation. If you use a standard wire that is the same size or larger than the circuit, you are at a high risk of catastrophic failure of what is in that circuit, or even a car fire. We recommend always having spare Fuses and Fusible Links stored in your Z, especially if you travel.
