fuse panel layout

[glenntwincam]

does anyone have a list or diagram of the fuse panel as used in a 06 caterham w/ svt engine ? after driving awhile the car just stops running. first thing I check are fuses and it is always the same one failed. replace it and car runs great for a indefinite time(could be 100 miles or 12) it always dies at idle. if I knew what this fuse does it would help narrow the search. all diagrams I have looked do not match what is in this car, including assy.book that came with it.the panel has 5 modules/relays w/ 3 fuses each. thanks

Hi, not sure what you seen already, does the Cat site have them

If not can you take a pic of the fuse box and point out which one blows, I will see if I can do some research for you.

thanks, it appears by quantity & amperage to match the duratech fuse panel. which makes sense both being ford products. the fuse that blows is 15 and picture shows a 30 (it's marked battery supply) could it be that simple ?

Yes from what you have said, then swapping to a 30 amp fuse will cure it. If I was doing this I would connect up an ammeter in series with the cables a check the current drawn from that circuit., then fit the appropriate fuse. But as the diag says Battery supply, I would expect this to be somewhere in the region of 25 amp draw.

If it is the main power supply relay,Check the routing of the wiring at the starter . Make sure the wires are not shorting out on the starter case.
