Where do the fusible links go?
I see the main one by the battery, the 3 down by the starter. But what do these run anybody know? And can they be intermitent if one is bad. Basically I am not getting anything in my car that has to deal with ignition off power. Some of it seems to work peridically like door locks but I tested the fusible links by the starter and they are all getting voltage thru them. Can it be when they get a real load they go off?

not all of the eletrical system is on a fuseable link, except maby the main one from the battery. it's been a long time since i've seens a stock wiring set up. not sure one would ever fail intermitly. i think the best bet would be to start tracing the power from the battery and sxee where you have it or don't.

Fusible links are just like a fuse. They are either good or bad. They can't fail gradually and create and intermitten fault.
Check all your fuses, especially that one on the right inner fender. If they are check out start tracing wires. A wiring diagram would be especially helpful.
