Default Trying To Replace A Fuse On My Crossfire Fuse Box Looks Different

Hi all

I'm trying to replace the spoiler fuse on my crossfire that I suspect may be damaged

The problem I'm having is when I've taken the lid off the fuse box, mine looks completely different to any other diagram or anyone else's fuse box

Here's a photo of mine with all the wires compared to the diagram layout and other people's online

Can anyone help out why it looks so different?

Thanks

You are comparing apples and oranges. Go to the fuse box on the near side of the engine bay.

This is the fuse box under the hood (there is a much smaller black square MAIN fuse box front of the battery but those fuses are HUGE amperage fuses, you shouldn't be having a problem with one of those unless the car is flat-out dead with many circuits). I'm not sure with the right hand drive vehicles BUT it looks like a prior owner wired an extra circuit (the above panel fuse box tap & extra parts are not in a non-modified US model). Just not sure, someone with a UK fuse box can confirm or nix the extra wired in wiring (pretty sure though they are not 'loomed' into the factory wiring). Maybe someone with more experience with RH drive cars to point out what was added & can help figure out that circuit? Good luck!

Brilliant, I realized I was looking in the complete wrong place 😂

Apparently that's all normal for a right hand drive EU car so I'll just go with that 😂

Many thanks

Hi there mate I have a similar problem as the speedometer has stopped working and spoiler is stuck up, did changing the fuse fix the problem with your car by any chance? Or did it become something else that was the issue, please any bit of help and advice will be greatly appreciated believe me on that as I'm starting to panic over all the little things that are just now popping up but tbh when driving the car it's so smooth it's like a different car completely. Hope you can make it through my essay and get back to me. Cheers mate

The fuse for the spoiler/wing is # 16 on a USA car. That would be for the spoiler only, but I would think it would stay in the down position if it was the fuse. It could also be a bad speed sensor for both the speedometer and the spoiler.
Also you might want to use a scanner to see if any codes come up. That will give you the best information.

These symptoms are usually the relays in the RCM or the speed sensors on the wheels.
