The Bronco has no recovery hooks, so I am adding two of these up front $6.50 each!

I secured every thing with ty-wraps and had a beer............or two. If you don't feel comfortable (or know what your doing) working with electricity don't do this. Go buy the new part. I just get a kick out of making something dead, live agai...

I found the thermal fuse was blown too. Thats the gold looking cylinder with the pointed end. You can check it with a meter.

There was an un used crimp location next to the original part, I clip the old part off, stuck in the new and crimped it with pliers.
