LA165 Fuse Holder

OK, so as promised in a separate post on this awful riding mower... Here are the pictures of the fuse holder itself and the wire going to it (I pulled it out of the holder because there should be a second wire coming off the fuse holder, going somewhere (right?))

I have what appears to be a connector one side of the fuse, but cannot find any wire with a connector for the other side. Strange. I really don't want this mower to go to the shop for this kind of thing, so if anyone has a similar unit and can shed some light on this I'd appreciate it.

I don't know about your mower, but I have wires like that on a couple of my generators. In my case, those wire that don't go anywhere, were put there for available options.

I would agree with mountain trapper, it is prolly a spare circuit, the connector is a common GM type, so if you decide to add a circuit you can, Gently bend the tab around so that is looks about like the one closer to your thumb in picture 1 and you can push it into the back of the fuse holder, it should snap in and stay there, put the holder back in its hole first.

OK, then perhaps it isn't getting power to the ignition for another reason... I thought the fuse's purpose was as part of the ignition.
