Relacement for the Mondial, Testarossa and 400i relay\fusebox
Hi Guys, I wanted to introduce myself. I am Electrotech and have been an Aerospace electronic technician for 25 years involved in cockpit electronics for commercial airlines. We build and test the electronics racks for the Boeing, Airbus and McDonald Douglas airplanes. Two years ago our local Ferrari parts distributor asked me to come up with a drop-in replacement for the 1983 and newer Mondials. These cars were plagued with electrical problems from the relay\fuse box. After looking at the damage on several of the fuse boxes it became obvious that the (5) thin (0.015 thick) Mylar boards did not have the strength to hold the pins in place and did not have the current capabilities for the starter, fuel pump and fans. After 2 years, 4 programming engineers and 3 board fabrication houses, I have a circuit board that I am pleased with. This new board is a single board with internal layers that will replace those thin (5) Mylar boards. The new board is heavy duty with 0.125 thickness (normal is 0.062) and 2 oz copper circuitry (normal is 1 oz). The Mondial boards performed so well in the field that I now have replacement boards for the 1985-1991 Testarossa and most recently the 400i models. I am now confident enough to offer a service to Ferrari owners of replacing the old relay\fuse box Mylar cards with the new replacement card. For $850+shipping I will remove the old cards, install the upgraded card, test it and return within 3 days. I would like to eventually stock completed assemblies so if anyone out there has broken fuse boxes sitting around, I’ll make a deal with you for these cores.
Best Regards,
