i was trying to buy some new fuses today and i am not sure the type i need. i need the fuse part numbers or type that fit the heater the cigar lighter and the wipers. they did not have a listing for it. the truck came without factory air.

 

Gashog, Is this for the 75 model that your working on? Let me know, I have a 75 model shop manual.
Doc

 

yes it is for a 75.

 

Give me just a few minutes, and I'll hook you up.
Doc

 

cool, thanks

is there anyway you could take a picture of it a put it in your gallery .there is lots of people here with the same issue but people only have diagrams of the bigger fuse box with more fuses there is only a few in mine no more than 6 or 7.

 

Air conditioner and heater are on one fuse which is a 30 amp 3AG this should be the top fuse in your box.
Back up lamps, Turn signal lamps, and windshield washer are on one fuse which is a 14 Amp SFE14. This will be the second fuse from the top.
Instrument panel, cluster ilumination,ash tray light,transmision indicator light (automatic) radio lamp, heater/Ac lamp,head lamp/windshield wiper switch ilumintaion lamp are on the third fuse down which is a 3 Amp AGA3.
Courtesy, Dome, Cargo, glove box lamp, and cigar lighter are on one fuse which is a 15 Amp AGW15. This will be the fuse to the left on the bottom.
The last fuse that is on the bottom and to the right will be for the stop lamps. It is a 20 Amp fuse that is an AGX20.
I'm not sure how to post a picture of this. I couldn't get the correct sizes from the shop manual. I got these from the owner's manual that is in the glove box.
If my explination confused you, holler back and we'll figure it out.
Doc.

 

wow! thats awesome information i have tried to get this info for over a year now. thank you i will have to go and pick up these fuses. no one knew the types for the simple fuse box. thanks again.

 

No one knew the type???? That's strange. There is a picture of the box that is labeled in the owners manual on one page, with a written description on the next page.
Your very welcome, if you need anything else....just give a shout.
Doc.

 

i think you may be the only one with the owners manual over the years they become lost your lucky to have one

 

Would you believe I'm lucky enough to own 2 of them?

 

wow double luck, would you believe i'm lucky enough to own 0 of them

 

I know someone who has an extra one.

I think the fuses from the 78 would have the same values as the 75.

Gas hog, I'd offer you one of mine, but my truck is actualy a 73, and thats what my manuals are for. I have 2 75 model parts trucks so I compared the fuse boxes and they're the same box. Therefore the information I posted is from a 73, but it's the same for a 75.
Mil1ion, I'm pretty sure a 78 does have the same values as a 75, but starting in 77, the fuse boxes held 12 fuses as opposed to 5. I posted the 76 and older fuse box to avoid any confusion.
Doc

 

I know that .

I have tech pics in my gallery that people never seem to get sent to

All I mentioned was circuitry protection similarites.

 

Dennis....Actualy you have great pictures and diagrams in your gallery....I'm just a bone head that forgets to direct people there. I'll try to remember to redirect people in the future. I actualy went through 2 or 3 books and my shop manual thats on CD before I remembered that the required information was in the owners manual. It would have been so much easier and faster to direct him to your gallery. It looks like some people are determined to do it the hard way.
