I am glad you brought this topic up. I was replacing the ignition
switch on my 48 3/4 ton, when I noticed that there is no fuse for the ignition coil and no fuse or fuseable link for the big 10 gauge wire that runs from the starter to the - on the ammeter.
In checking the truck schematic from the chevy truck manual for 48-51, page 12-2, there is no fuse running to the light switch and dimmer also. There is a possiblity that one day a fire could happen. A 6 volt battery can light up a 10 guage wire like a toaster. You can keep the wiring original but add a few more fuses. If we put in all this hard work on our trucks, I think it would be wise add some more fuses. Dave in Sandia Park, NM
