Anyone Familiar With a Blue Wire w/ Yellow Stripe Along Firewall?

Are you talking about the fusible link blowing when the key is accessory?

FYI. In general.
Key in RUN powers both the Ignition 1 (run) wires and the Accessory wires.
* Ignition 1 wires power engine related items; alternator field, ignition, electric choke assist if present, throttle stop solenoid if present, etc.
* Accessory powers everything else that gets power only when the key is on. This includes wipers, heater fan, turn signals, etc.


Thanks for you reply.
Yes, it was the "fusable link". However, in my case it was an in-line 25A blade mini fuse (aftermarket). I ended up just buying a new engine harness. Somehow, when I changed out to a new bulkhead connector, I jacked up some wires, with the whole reverse image in the service manual, based upon which direction you are looking from (inside or out at firewall).
Total user error on my part. But I am up and running!
