Fuse Box

Here is the detached fuse panel

Eight small glass 10 amp continuous fuses (right bottom) but only the left part has a black plastic handle.
Six 22 amps bakelite fuses (one missing on the picture) (RH12292).
Not on picture four 30 amps continuous large glass fuses at the top of the box.
One spring on the Otter black box top left Thermal cute-off reset button is out of order.
On the far left compartment there should be a replacement bobbin but it's missing also.

The seven diodes (bottom left) are only present on cars fitted with a refrigeration unit to prevent feed back from the electric actuators (HB p121)

And here the fuse panel as describe in Service Manual (does not apply to early models)

On this close view here you can see what is wrong inside the thermal cut out unit : there is a spring missing on the #3 contact at the bottom.
This is a brand new one I'll have to purchase (UD19046)
Said in Workshop Manual M7 The gear range selector thermal cut-out is removed by pulling away from the fuse panel
