Fuse Box Cover

[richriddle]

I am missing fuse box covers on the Yanmar tractors. Do any of you have ideas for replacing the clear plastic part that covers the fuses? Thanks.

Would it be the hinged type like the Gray Market machines have or are they different. Here's the one from my YM2610.

My YM186D has a semi-transparent snap-on cover about the size Maverick showed. It was out of stock at Hoye's so I continue to hold it on with a wire across it. They may have them in stock by now.

Somebody before me had the Elec. problems. Both Regulators even old and the new style Solid State that both ended up working. Back of the fuse panel was the bad connection. Just came up about how little plastic was factory and on the tractor. When I finished getting everything working I left it alone. Some things your not proud of but hey!! I'm not going through that again. Everything works but my blinkers. Which is the lights. The fixture that holds the bulbs dry rotted and broke. Both but I have a work light back there. The yrs. of the Rice Patty's was real apparent on this one.

In my image above, should the living-hinge break, my thoughts would be to make a hole between the two screws and retain the cover with simple hardware similar to this. If the cover gets lost, I'll just 3D print a new one.

Some of us aren't adept at 3D printing, to say the least.

Your fuse box would be super easy to 3D print a cover. There is a perimeter race-track ledge to utilize. Then add on the metal spring bar strap with a hole and a screw with a nylon spacer.

Well for a few bucks, you could start over with modern fuses;

I have a limited tolerance for running down electrical gremlins, but that's just me...

All the best,

Download FreeCAD v19. Make the 3D model for the cover. Then print at the Walmarts in your area or the local library.
