Does anyone know what the differences between pre-'97 and post-'97 GEMS fuseboxes are?
Part number? Dunno but there can't be that many differences or there'd need to be different wiring diagrams for the early and later ones. Never compared them to see though (and no, I'm not going to take them off the pre 97 and one of my post 97 cars to compare).

I think its the compressor clutch relay (RL3) that was fitted on the later one.
That wasn't until the 99 Thor ones that had the extra relay, my late 97 SE and 98 ex-plod don't have that either. They both have the same fusebox but the Ascot will be the earlier one. I'll have a look in the morning and see if there's anything obvious.
Well it seems like one off an M-reg one fits okay into an R-reg one, since it got me home :-) Thanks to dhallworth for turning one up at short notice :-)
Hmm, I wonder if that is the original or one that has been replaced at some time in it's life? There's two part numbers for the very early one, the one that was fitted originally (AMR3375) and one that superseded it (AMR6405), although this is different again to the one for the post 97 cars (AMR6476). I've always assumed the change in part number signified a redesign (thicker tracks maybe?) but it may be a sort of interim. Does everything work? Does it still have a visible part number and if it does, which one is it?
