Can you please identify the black wire fuseable link and the circuit it powers pictured on this 2003 Impala,6 cyl?
Fuse box is under hood on pass side firewall- two wires share post atop fuse box- one red, one black- black wire burned in half.

That black wire goes to the starter motor and should be connected to the battery positive terminal-splice in the same AWG

rasamataz- I thank you very much for your answer- I've been looking online all day for that seemingly simple wire ID (not able to find in Haynes manual either)
Now to find out why this link burned/shorted out- At least I have a starting point (starter motor)
Again, thank you.
