Connection box on positive terminal cable

[Charlie_Brown]

Anyone know what this is for and if it is a fusable link or just a Connection? Can I bypass it and wire straight onto the battery post or like I said is it a disable link?

Photos? Link?

It is literally the connection box that connects to the positive terminal right at the battery. I took it off and apart and it's not a disable link it's just a connection for anyone else who may want to know. Ended up a wire pulled away from the connector so just the insulation was connected in my case.

Actually, it's a Fusible Link.

The BLACK section is just a connection point to the main terminal. The fusible links are the red and green wires AFTER the black box. If you notice, there's a second connection at the other end of said red and green wires.

 

Edit: here's the fusible link from said connection.

Yep, black box is just a connection however I was unaware that the red and green wires were fusible, I figured that was in the next set of connections immediately after.

Good to know

If you do decide to alter the connection right there keep the fusible links as close to stock length as possible. They're a certain length designed to give at a certain load just like a regular fuse would but if they get too short then the regular load pulled by the system will be too much essentially turning it into a smaller amperage fuse.

That is good to know lucky at this point I don't need to mess with them and their lengths bit in the future I'll have to remember that
