Anyone know where to find a fuse like this? Its an abs module fuse on a 2012 fisker karma and not even the manufacturer can help, but that because they are now owned by the Chinese and have no clue as to where what parts go. Pic related

And its not a PAL fuse or what ever bs it's called as that is too small to fit
>>
>not even the manufacter can help
Welp anon you are fucked. That car isnt common enough that you can find pieces anywhere. Have you searched yet? Start by looking for other karma owners see who can help. Its a shame that thats what you get for risking on being an early adopter.

enjoy driving without the abs?

seriously though, is it a problem with fisker just not really existing, or can even the remnants of what's left not provide a fuse for you?

How comfortable do you feel pulling the fuse box apart and rewiring just that one? Is that even possible in a fisker karma?

Owners forum cant help, i dont own the car, some idiot tow truck driver removed the fuse thinking that would help to load the car onto the ramp and tossed it somewhere.
>>14711157
I did, made an adapter with some spade connectors to use a regular maxi fuse.
>>14711156
Thats not the problem, im not an owner im the only tech at the shop who deals with the damn cars.

Also it powers the power brake system and withought it the car is really difficult to move around the shop.
I will probably end up getting some 60a fusable link and just use that.
Here have some fisker carnage
>>
>>14711186
Hmm have you tried calling other dealerships to see if any of them have a spare fuse? I mean someone has to have one.

I have talked with a number of other certified service providers and no one has one.
>>14711215
ya but it needs to be a bit more professional for the customer. Oh well i have almost a month to figure something out, im still waiting for a bunch of battery modules for the car
>>
>>14711112
Stupid car, stupid design choices. Whodathunk?

I lost all respect for the Fisker Karma when I saw one get smoked by a stock 350Z a few years back.
>>
You need to find one being parted out...maybe check ebay?

If you can't get it new, used is option 2
>>
Looks like it might be one of these with covers over the terminals:

Tell the owner that he's a fucking faggot for owning this car and that you aren't working on his piece of shit anymore.

There was never any reason for this car to even exist, and now that they're dead I'm so much happier.
>>
>>14711253
Can you remove the original fuse module and replace it with a standardized one?
>>
>>14711253

Gut the OEM fuse housing and superglue your nig rigged fuse assembly in there.

No, tried one of those, they dont fit.
>>14711469
They are coming back and coming out with a new car soon, and honestly its not worse than a tesla. Its slower but more comfortable, and looks better.
plus the owners pay out the ass to get the cars fixed so that is always good.
>>14711504
>>14711574
i have a spare fuse box from a crashed car, will be looking into what i can modify but honestly im just going to probably go with an adapter to a maxi fuse that will sit elsewhere in the fusebox
Thanks for trying to help /o/, wish i could just do pic related to one of these cars and be done with it

>>14711112
Posts like this remind me somewhere out there, someone's having a shittier day

>>14712562
>could just do [an LS1 swap] to one of these cars and be done with it

But that would make it reliably drivable- This is a FIsker Karma we're talking about here!

>>14711112
None of these faggots realize that OP is talking about a car from GTA...
>>
>>14711112
off chance that it might be a part used on other gm cars

>>14711112

Just out of curiosity, OP, what stealership do you work at that will accept Fisker shit into the shop?

my apologies, late night reading comprehension always ends up making one look like a fool. Yhat said, some further search did come up with a similar fuse, just not the actual style name. So it's not something Fisker specific.

Tried Digikey?

Ya i have a whole box of different fuses like that that i have ordered and they all dont fit see>>14711132
thanks for the picture of the black one, gives me hope that it may still be possible
>>14716370
ill just say that we are the only shop on the west coast that is authorized by Fisker to work on them.
>>
>>14717649
Not much luck in sourcing the mistery fuse,at this point might have to go ask in one of the fisker forums, seem to be a couple of techs hanging around in this one: http://www.fiskerbuzz.com/forums/13-fisker-karma/ who might be able to ID it.
>>
I would try to use some crimp on female spades to push into the fuse box connectora then wire in a holder for an easier to find fuse. Just make sure the customer is OK with it. Or don't.
>>
>>14719185
I know, i'm on that forum but none of the other techs could find one for me. i will be ordering that balck one from the image from england on monday

>>14719350
Fellow anon, think your unicorn 60A abs fuse has been found: http://www.ebay.com/itm/181995925879
>>
>>14721113
still no closer to sussing out the actualy type name, but seems Ford has used them ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/181711521692 ) as has Subaru : http://www.ebay.com/itm/181215227971

>>14711504
Not unless it twinkles
>>
>using fuses

hard-wire it.

I used to work at the factory that assembled fisker. There used to be fuckton of spare parts lying around. Try to call them?
