Where can you get this type/size fuse? Look at the local auto parts chain stores 10amp 15amp 20amp and 30 amp all they had Thanks again for the information! | | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 | yes, it doesn't hurt to have slightly higher ratings, if a fuse blows there's a major problem that'll usually be drawing the max, like a short!
but look around, maybe a radio shack or such, other sizes are around
