I recently turbocharged my car and on the way home from the tuner my s2000 was smoking under the hood. I pulled over immediately and shortly lost my power steering as well. so i popped the hood and the fusebox was melted as well as all my wiring. so i cut on the fresh areas that weren't melted and cannot figure out exactly where each individual wire runs to. there are multiples of the exact same color. If anyone has a digram with all wires under the hood that would help so much. thank you

Your fuse box melted? And none of the fuses popped, first? Did you have major re-wiring done, prior to this problem?

yes the bottom of the fusebox melted. the top portion is completely fine. the wiring that routes alonng the front of the engine and into the passenger headlight was all burnt and melted from the heat of the turbo. I have a kit where the turbo mounts right in the front of the car on the passenger side. so i had to cut the portions off and now I'm struggling to match up where they go. reason being is because a lot of the wires are the exact same color. for instance solid blue wires with silver dots, or black wires with silver dots. i believe there are 4 of those each. i was guessing the blues are power and that the blacks are ground. but I'm worried about hooking them to the wrong wires and not matching up to the fuse box properly when or if fuse blows

I'm doing a wire tuck atm for this reason, get a good used loom instead and either tuck it or move the fuse box and the wires as much as you can fella, you may even be able to use your damaged loom to lengthen any wires which will make things easygoing? that's if you decide on the tucked way.

Replace the entire damaged loom. They are cheap.
