Car won't start, were to get a JDM fuse - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

First off I have a 91 hatchback with a redtop in it...
So I was replacing my battery and like a jack ass I don't pay attention and put the terminals on reversed. I replaced the blown 75 amp fuse and the car will now turn over but won't fire. I can smell gas when it is turning over and it acts like it doesn't get spark. What else could have gotten cooked, I am thinking either the ECU or coil pack since there isn't spark. Would the coil pack even be a possibility or should I just worry about the ECU.

JDM fuse? i'm pretty sure you can just get the fuse off of a 240 in a junkyard, fuses are fuses. i would check all of the other fuses in the car, it really could've fried the ecu but i doubt it would do anything to the coil packs

yeah you could have fried your ecu. other cars also have that 75 amp fuse. i got some from sentras before, theres probablly other cars you can get them off of too

what is this "JDM" fuse we speak of? I MUST HAVE A PICTURE!

you can get them from almost any early 90's to mid 90's nissans or infiniti's. I have pulled some from maxima's, sentra's and a J30.

You can get the 75 amp fuseable links at almost any parts store. Should be a dollar or two. I'd also open up the ECU and see if you smell anything fried? Hopefully not but that can happen very easily when this happens.
