Looking to sell my 1991 FJ80. Just not sure how much to ask for it. It needs an engine rebuild/new engine. Compression test came back showing blown #6 piston. I have taken it to two mechanics. The rear passenger tail gate/fender is missing from an accident years ago. A/C is out. It has roughly...

No dome lights on. I disconnected the positive terminal as you informed me to do. I have “rattled” all associated wire harnesses, with the same persistent tone to AM1...

So, I am getting a constant tone from AM-1 (the FL I am holding in the picture) after doing the “percussive dx”... no tone from AM2. What’s my next step here? I see FL leads to the fuse box/IG switch/alternator/30A power?

Got it. Although I’m not an expert at reading wiring diagrams, this is helpful. In order to get to the ignition switch, I have to take apart the plastic underneath the steering wheel and look at the wires running to the ignition? Remember, I am only an amateur seeking guidance... Also, where...

The ignition coil is in good shape (I checked the ohms) however, I have not inspected the wires from the ignition coil. Although this looks to be good. I have yet to check the ignition switch feed. Although something to note, when I first bought this truck, did have some issues with the keys...

Here is the "AVS-3" wire I was talking about. Notice the the AVS-3 wire, has the gray connector on the end. This wire directly connects to the AM-2 (gray connector on the FL). I traced this wire and have not found any issues. I will re-tape everything. I will also disconnect the CSI time switch...

The AVS-3 wire is the one which connects to the gray connector on the fusible link (the one that keeps popping). Just figured their may be a short in that line? I don’t see any part of the wire harness that is in bad shape though. Do you think this cold start time switch. Pups be causing a short...

Wire harness...

wire harness...

@jonheld So, here are a few pictures of my wire harness coming of the positive battery cable. The AVS-3 wire seems to be the one that is causing the fusible link (AM-2) to blow. I traced this all the way through the engine compartment and have not seen ANY damage. A few wires Amy be exposed but...

I second this, did you ever solve your problem?

Hello, So my FJ80 (91') has been having stalls followed by no start condition. Replacing the fusible link on the positive battery terminal allows the truck to fire back up and drive short distances. However, the AM2 link continues to blow (following multiple FL replacements). Have now narrowed...
