    I would agree - except there is no power to the Rear Power Distribution box, and that is supplied by the Fusible links on the RED positive cable of the right-hand battery: https://www.meeknet.co.uk/e31/Timms_...use_Finder.htm

    Correct,
    Check the fusible links. If your Gen Mod is still original, it will need caps - they all do at this age.
