AMR2983 Fuse Box
Hi,

Long shot, but does anyone have any decent photos of the inside/outside of a AMR2983 fuse box as used in the Wolf?

I am looking at building my own from scratch as trying to find an original is as good as impossible, and would like some original photos to work from.

Alternatively, is there a plug in alternative available?

Cheers in advance to anyone that can help! Very Happy

I have quite a few of them, I broke up lots of 300tdi defenders some years ago.

Good morning,

Any chance you could sell one to me please?

I'm partway through a 100% rebuild and the cap is missing and rear clips have broken away at some time before I had the vehicle.
TIA.

Have you tried the likes of PAblanchards? They’ve a lot of ex mod, don’t reply to emails though you’ll have to be old fashioned on the phone.

Mine is broken also.

It seems like just the sort of thing that someone would 3D print.

Its on my to-do list but I've been hoping someone else would get there first!

Please let me know if you do and IF you do, please improve the design and material flexibility.
Built to crack.

I tried Autosparks 2 days ago and they don't have them, but they do offer an alternative solution, although I have not pursued that yet.

Here's what Paul at Autosparks said yesterday:


"Our solution on the harnesses we build is to use 3 x 655-601, clipped together makes a 3-way fuse box in its own right. When wired up replaces the original Land Rover assembly".


Maybe someone with the requisite auto-electrical knowledge could explain further?

They are saying to use three of these -

https://www.autosparks.co.uk/in-line-maxi-...-6mm-cable


...but that is no better than the broken unit, as its not like your part isnt electrically working, it just does not mount correctly.

And three of the above would also not mount to the original bracket.

So it would work if you had nothing at all, but is no better than a broken OEM one.

As the 300Tdi engine compartment fuse box distributes power from a single feed, I would suggest that this is a more suitable alternative -
