Lets play "what are these" one more time - pics included
I am looking to replace the wires with the "barrel" on them. I think they are 16 gauge fusible links, but I can not find that configuration. I need to replace one or more according to my electronics guy I am having some trouble finding them also. So here is the pic and the link to what I think can replace them. Thanks as always http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/de...d=fusible+link

definitely fusible links (believe 2 of them are from your C100 connector on the driver side). never was a fan of them since they can be a bit difficult to diagnose visually (unlike a bad fuse), but i believe they are bigger than 16. they're not too common to find at part stores these days, but they usually have one or two kicking around in the fuse section.

Thanks for the response Dan.
Just a couple more questions, my friend did see 16 on the wire, so we assumed hay were 16. The plastic "barrels" is just where the fusible link wire attaches and is weather proofing?
We are try in to track down an issue these link's either work or don't right? no in-between?

the barrels are the actual "link"; inside it works like a one-time use fuse. when they go bad, they're usually stretchy since the wire inside has burnt up. and yes, they either work or do not, typically no in between

Thanks again
One more question we are not going to be able to find this OEM? Were looking at a Dorman product that looks nothing like this.
The other problem is wit the no in-between this is not going to solve my issue but it hopefully will solve some other issue I have not found yet. LOL

Ended up putting an additional fuse block in (6) and running the wires to that and fingers crossed may have taken care of my ruff sidelining issue. Thanks for the help guys.
