Car lost all electrical while driving

Think I figured out what happened here. In doing the ammeter bypass last weekend, the main fusible link fell apart upon snipping the wire!

There's a good example of why car manufacturers used open barrel terminals with housings that locked together. A lot less mechanical failures like that.

If you're doing the MAD bypass, know that now you are putting all of the power, all of the time, through that fusible link. Its one of the drawbacks of their method.
