Blew the fuse on my 8 gauge power wire. Its was origanlly a 50A size fuse. I have an 80A size fuse laying around. Could i use this instead of another 50A? There the exact same size and everything would fit right in.
Ok well then i wont do this aha will have to buy another fuse. So can i replace the fuse while the power wire is still hooked up to the amp? Or should i disconect the wire from the amp? Or the battery? Or what?NO! you will melt your wire before the fuse will pop . thats why a 50 is in there because a 8guage wire is only good for 50amps do not put that fuse in there
So id be fine putting in a new one while the wires still hooked up to the amp and batt? Also, the fuse blew because my power wire (was disconnected from amp at the time) touched a piece of metal under me seat and spearked a whole bunch. Is it normal for power wire to spark like that just from touhing metal?i have always disconnected from battery put fuse in then reconnected kinda preference imo.. yeah but get a new 50amp dont replace with a bigger one
Doooood.... U don't have that eight gauge running your onyx 1500, or God forbid, both off your amps, do you?Blew the fuse on my 8 gauge power wire. Its was origanlly a 50A size fuse.
