It's true there are fuses in front in the engine bay of the M50, but another set under the rear seat. I'm also thinking about the relays...

Yes. There are fuses under the rear seat. You'll also need to check.

This should point you in the right direction when the problem appears to be a fusible link.

cheers guysHave you got water anywhere under the rear seat? (you need to feel around under the fuses/module/relay (power dist box) and look under the battery. Have you actually changed the fusible link? Try running a wire unline with it (Safety first: **watch** if it gets hot/burns- if so be prepared with tools to remove it immediately)

Then see if you still have no power. Next thing to check is the Power Protection Relay in the rear power dist box, should be two the same- so you can swap them around to see. If the PPR works when you plug it in, it should be energised (make a little 'tick') when you plug it in... :) Nick

Search for a picture of the PPC relay if you don't know which is which
