Well, you shouldn’t have to be replacing fuses on a regular basis. If you are, then there’s a problem.

 

If the seat was working before and now it’s not, maybe something is stressing the power motor(s), like old grease in their pinion gearboxes... Just a little bit too much current was needed to overcome the resistance of the goop and poof! Ferrari probably spec’d a low rated fuse like 10 or 15 amps to run power to all of the seat motors.

Ok so it’s been in the high 80’s here in Atlanta 

Highway surface temperature over 95 plus

The car is black on black and hey I am not white so the A/C is gotta work

And low and behold it’s a cold one 

Very impressive to say the least 

The motor temps in stop and go traffic are great as well

Looks like Ferrari finally did there homework with regards to keeping these V-12 cool

Nothing anywhere close to the 512 motor temps 

In transmission auto mode pretty smooth shifting 

The car had a new clutch installed a while back and the car only has 26K on it

So I don’t know what the previous owner was doing ? Drag racing?

Anyway my drivers seat stopped working, I know it’s a fuse 

And you will never guess where they put the fuse box on this car

Passenger side, remove foot carpet, unlock panel 

It’s like they stole a page from the circuit breakers panel on the F-14!

I will let Rick cover that one 

Anyway that’s it for now 

Plan on doing an oil change soon so look for that report 

Gotta go guys

Later and thanks for all the great support
