Fusible Link
2000 Chevrolet C Tahoe 2WD V8-4.8L VIN VSECTION Fusible Link
Fusible link is wire designed to melt and break continuity when excessive current is applied. It is often located between or near the battery and starter or electrical center. Use a continuity tester or a J 39200 DMM at each end of the wire containing the fusible link in order to determine if it is broken. If broken, it must be replaced with fusible link of the same gage size.
Repairing a Fusible Link
IMPORTANT: Fusible links cut longer than 225 mm (approx. 9 inches) will not provide sufficient overload protection.
Refer to Splicing Copper Wire Using Splice Clips.
Repairing Damaged Wire Insulation
If the conductive portion of the wire is not damaged, locate the problem and apply tape around the wire. If the damage is more extensive, replace the faulty segment of the wire. Refer to Splicing Copper Wire Using Splice Clips and follow the instruction to repair the wire.
