I was checking some things over on my car for the power window conversion. I noted that the fuse #12 dealt with the power window relay, and unfortunitly all three prongs on that fuse are being used. The car has an ASC electric sunroof probably using the third one. Can I use just any 8 amp fuse that has swithced power for this? What are the color codes to the right of the fuse telling me.

Thanks and happy bricking!

    The relay is wired to close when the ignition switch is in Position II.

    I don't remember what year 240 you are installing the windows into. The years ones I have checked on have Fuses #11, #12, and #13 all "hot" together.

    #11 powers the O/D solenoid and the rear window demister. Those two together may get up close to the 16A rating.

    The other is #13, which powers turn signals, heated seats, and seat belt reminder. If you don't use the seat heaters a lot, #13 would be a good choice. It shows to be a 16A too.

    I checked the diagrams for 1984, 1987 and 1988. You car may be different. Check by pulling the fuse and seeing what doesn't work.

    There is a "piggy=back" connector available at various parts houses and Radio Shack. It allows an additional wire to be connected.

    Good Luck,

    Bob
