There are six fusebox assemblies per vehicle, five of which have conventional, replaceable fuses. The High Power Protection Module does not have conventional fuses.

Two Engine Management fuse-boxes are shown. Only one is fitted (LHD or RHD) to any vehicle, on the opposite side to the pedal box.

The High Power Protection Module comprises three 250amp fusible links to protect the starting circuit (two connected in parallel) and the battery positive supply to the other fuse-boxes.
