    So I'm guessing it still doesn't work.Yes I have two wires on that side.I didn't mention that when you first posted those pics because mine is from a 91 that I converted from efi to carb.I would have to pull it apart and trace it.So what happened with the other white wire?What did you find?What did you do?Still no power to anything?

    The green 40amp fuse has two white wires the 30 amp has red/ blue wire and red/white wire


    Your blue wire looks to be in the right location on the relay in the bottom pic it comes out of the relay and goes into the harness it appears both white wires of the 40 amp go into the harness I know still f$&&kin a pain in the ass chasing wires ha

    Wiring diagrams can be a pain on much newer cars or should say very complex . I would check your ignition switch wires in the steering colum especially were they connect to the key cylinder ignition mechanism look for hot spots or burnt wires touching something Il il have to look at th diagram again but I think the white wires also run into the starter relay but I gotta check first

    Unplug your connector from your alternator the green clip and the positive power wire that bolts to the alternator stick a fuse in and see if it blows

    If u do that and it blows that means its not the alternator make sure the power wire doesn't ground and spark while its disconnected . Turn the ignition to start and see if the fuse survives . Looks like the the white wires/40amp travel thru the ignition and alternator try eliminating each device one buy one

    iirc that is your main fuseable link, luckily that eliminates nothing...

    what is the wire color going to it?



    does the fuse pop when you put it in? with the key in "on" or "acc"? or only when you hit the starter?



    no matter what, you have something shorting out. on that fuse is only big draw things: ignition switch, coil, interior fuse box and alt.


    x2 on disconnect and isolate the wires to the alt and test. i found out the hard way that stock alts dont like to jump and had a similar issue with an old celica.
