Checked out our 9/78 HZ Sandman van and the fuse is there. Might be a date thing or perhaps another plant difference.
Cheers Dave

sweet its there as pikd above dopey me was looking to the left of booster where the loom enters .........
Jason I have checked the red van, its build date is 5/78 and it deffo has the fuse you were speaking about, the first pic shows that it was hidden behind the wiring loom and above the windscreen wiper motor, the 2nd pic shows shows it pulled out in full view. My yellow van build date is 10/77 deffo doesn't have the fuse...so I would be very interested to know if Ski-mans van has this fuse, because they are both early HZ's and ran down the assembly line close to each other. It could be that the yellow van has the wrong wiring harness because when we purchased it, it had a HX Statesman rebuild kit throughout so to speak.
On the yellow van I couldn't tell you know whether there was a separate red wire running across the fire wall or not because I have retaped all the wiring loom during my restoration
Thanks Rodney

That good it prove early HZ' didn't have the fuse and my van has correct wiring thank you ski man
Stick this will be interested
I was talking to Absinth on the weekend, he felt that HZ sandmans and GTS had a headlight upgrade during the run, and a fuse was probably installed as part of this upgrade. hense it is in our red van which is late 78

Where does the other end of that wire go? I have the headlight relay 'I think' on one end and a snipped connection on the other.
I'll have a look at my red van for you Leroy
I believe this to be the case.Originally Posted by RodneyHZ253
