Can't quite tell from the photo, but it looks like they're not wired for use. Does it not have a diagram in the lid? Is something not working?

no power nothing not even hazards, stolen recovered, fixed ignition etc still nothing, is there a master fuse?

I don't know for certain but I would imagine these are a master fuse of some type going by the amp rating of 80A for the black one and 60A for the yellow. I suspect they feed the normal fuse box, are you getting power there?

Here's some photo's of removed fuses that I have (removed from a mk1 Mondeo? many years ago, the blue one is 20A and pushes on to spade terminals, the black and yellow might be bolted on at a guess (can't remember).

Apparently those fuses not in is normal, nothing missing according to another ford forum - if drivers door is locked, should key still open with no power? the lever inside will not open the door, it is locked.

Update, I sent a fused connection from the battery to the thick red on the ignition and the van had power lights, hazards everything, what does that tell me please to look at next, the red going to the ignition is not live? I even unlocked the door with key ignition on

The van runs forcing power to the ignition switch and everything works, i have an inline 30amp fuse just in case but van is running but i need know why power is not going to ignition in the normal way
