Hello!, My daughter has a 2001 F150 (5.4L, two whl drive) and the battery/starter cable is pretty corroded, and the battery terminal clamps should definitely be replaced!. I believe there might be a fusible link in the cable so I thought best to get a Motorcraft direct replacement. Found a Ford part Number of WC-95760, which I believe is the correct one, but no-one seems to have one in stock/discontinued. I have seen some replacement cables for several hundred dollars but that's way to much to pay for a cable. Besides, my daughter is a teacher out on furlough and she can't afford to hat much. Does anyone have a source for a direct fit battery starter cable, that doesn't cost too much?

Also, does anyone know of a good Jcase/cartridge fuse puller? I broke one with my pliers trying to get it out. They sell relay pullers, and blade fuse pullers, but I can't find a fuse puller made expressly for the Jcase/cartridge fuses.

 

Will this work?

Not sure. But unless my eyes are mistaken, it looks like there is a fusible link in the wiring. Do you see that? Maybe i can just replace the positive and negative cables separately.

 

That's just the positive cable. It's what the catalog lists for your truck. I have no idea what a fusible link would be for.

 

Thanks, anyone have any suggestions on the jcase/cartridge fuse puller? (other than using a screwdriver or pliers)

 

The pullers sold for jcase don't work worth a crap. From doing a bit of searching, the consensus seems to be a small screwdriver and needle nose pliers. One guy says a chip puller can be made to work with a bit of tip modding.
