1953 mercury fuse box diagram?
Hey fellas,
So I’m working on a 53 mercury and everything works except the push start button, blinkers, and horn. I’ve checked the fuses on the outer firewall but they all looked good. Anyone have a photo of a diagram so I can help located where the issue is? Thanks 🤙🏼 |

The 53 and 52 Mercs I have don't have any kind of a fuse box. Just a little board under the dash with a few fuses on it for the lights. Nothing on the firewall.

Should be able to track it down with a test light. The starter buttons do wear out and lose contact. Solenoids too. I don't know if this is a new problem that just started in your car or if it has been sitting for ages.

Check here for wiring schematic.
If you have automatic transmission, the neutral safety switch could factor in to the starter button problem. http://www.vanpeltsales.com/FH_web/F...ng1953merc.jpg

I made myself a tool to wiggle into the terminal block female bullet socket fittings to allow the male bullet to be more easily extracted. It can be near impossible to extract the bullet terminals without some way to expand that female socket terminal. Last edited by rotorwrench; 12-02-2021 at 11:45 AM. |

If you have original wiring you may not be able to distingush between the wires unless you use a multimeter. No fuse block just some circuit breakers for the headlight/tail lights and miscellaneous fuses. The above schematics should help you out.
