The fault is it the back of fuse box intermittent power I’m going to replace fuse box first...

Do that if it is really buggered. But you may be able to save it by just cleaning all the contacts with electrical contact cleaner, and maybe snugging them up a bit. As long as nothing is showing signs of melting.

I was so close to being on road 

The box pries up from the rubber isolators to reveal these hidden connectors for the ECU and fuel/ignition fuses. Worth addressing these first before replacing the entire fuse block . . .

One of the tabs the positive wire goes on is a bit dodgy seems a bit loose and unstable.

if you wiggle it the power goes through circuit but randomly drops out

Ok, you might be able to fix that just by squeezing the connector together a bit with a pair of pliers. Or replace the connector with a new one.

Or are you referring to the tab on the bottom of the fuse holder that the connector plugs on to.

Yeah the tab on bottom of fuse box 

its quite loose

[audiomick]

Oh, that's a pity.

Have a good look at it anyway. Maybe there is something you could do to save it.

A very quick search indicated that the fuse box might not be still available. Replacing it would not be impossible, but would be a bit of effort, I reckon. If you could refurbish the one you have, that would be the easy way out.

No more obtainable from Guzzi. Found a shop (factory) in the US, so bought 2. They are having a pit stop in NY at my wife's sister residence. If needed will look.

Cheers Tom.

So it appears it’s the actual part that holds fuse I tried tightening it seemed to work I’m going to try slightly bowing fuse tab so it’s tighter in holder

Are there signs of heat? If so, you will almost certainly have to"re-tension" the female blades in the fuse holder. With the proper tool, one may be able to release the locking tab on those blades and left them up where they may be pinched to ensure good contact before being snapped back in place.

You may as well learn how. You will eventually be doing it full time.
