I blew the fuse on my V225. Anyone know how to take the fuse module apart to change the link?

Need to change fuse on V225

It almost looks like you have to pull the module out the back of the rubber holder, but the only thing I have to grab onto are the wires, and I can't believe that's right. Any help would be appreciated. (BTW...the motor is a 1999)

can you post a model number?
there are at least 3 versions of a V225.
you are looking at your motor. we are looking at a screen.
once we can identify WHAT version of a V 225 then we can offer suggestions.
what fuse did you blow and why do you think its blown?

Looks like it's S225TXRW. I can see it's blown, and if I jump accross it, instruments and starter work. It's one of two fusible links contained inside a rubber module, on the starboard side of the motor. Tried to attached a jpeg, but for some reason it won't attach.

you simply pull it out.
the other is for the battery isolator circuit . if your not using the isolator circuit you can use that fuse in an emergency.
however as that's an 80 amp fuse I would recommend you find out why it blew.
and see, its NOT a V225 its an S225.
the S225TXRW is listed as a 3.1L OX66 EFI with trim,25"shaft.remote control with a 1998 production run model code.

Thanks rodbolt17. The two links were each on a plug-in carrier. I swapped the blown one with the other one and the motor is running again. BTW, I blew the fuse making a rookie mistake. Hooked up the battery backwards in the dark trying to rush. Anyway, thanks again for the help.

that's typically what pops that fuse.
hooking up a battery charger backwards can do the same thing.
you may wish to get another, you may even find a used one.
most all the OX66 and HPDI motors used that fuse link.
