How do you know for sure the problem is the case and not something in wiring itself burning fuses?

Also check your Ground (-) cables. I think the 82 has 5 different ground cables.

I'm sure, because we checked with my electrician, and we have seen traces of burning on the case, and one of the problems is that the contacts are no longer tight, are all slow, and the merger with the case is not more solid, so we thought it was appropriate to change the fuse case or fuse box, i dont know what is the real name in American languange...sorry for that....what do you think???? Thanks again
