What amperage on each wire? I can trace them, so go ahead and give me the OEM wire colors, or tell me which circuit needs what amperage and I will test them to ID them.
But...did you try hitting it with a hammer?

My 83 tercel does not have one
Other tercels I'm pretty sure have 4 terminals
Do not see how 2 terminals would have a fuse?
Love those Tercell 4x4 wagons but they sure suffer from road noise.

I there are supposed to be 4 terminals, but the PO removed half of them to bypass fuses. This is on an '85.

EDIT: Wait, what exactly is this supposed to be, anyway? I checked my pictures from the red Tercel, and it also has only the two studs, and appears to be some kind of circuit breaker.

The PO did a lot of really weird things to this car, so I'm not 100% on what's OEM or not.

Found them in the wiring diagram.

WHT/RED has a fusible link named "FL 0.3P"; WHT has one named "FL 1.25B". I guess FL is "fusible link," but what is a 0.3P and a 1.25B?

That is the fusible link.

Hallelujah praise Google! A fresh cup of coffee later and I manage to give google the right search query to get results! I'll probably get some aftermarket fuse holders and slow blow fuses for a fresher look. Probably cheaper than going to Toyota, too.
