Bit con
Use a 5 amp fuse like everyone else.
As for the orientation issue, forget about it, with a 20 amp supply it is not going to be a problem, whereas using a 15 amp fuse could end the life of your vehicle, and potentially you, if someday your cable gets sufficiently damaged that you suffer a short circuit.
So Dashoto's kit only including 15 amp fuses is improper and dangerous....Correct?
1. I should replace both outer fuses with 5 AMP then (ACC + Battery). Leaving the Original 20 AMP (Vehicle) and 15 AMP (Vehicle) Alone?
2. I am confused by https://www.blackboxmycar.com/blogs/news/how-to-use-an-add-a-fuse-kit
Fuse tap orientation. I really WANT to understand this so please explain.
A. When they refer to orientation are they meaning the A and B plugging into the fuse box? And NOT the direction the fuse is plugged into Fuse 1 and 2, Correct?
B. It states to plug in Fuse 2 and Leave Fuse 1 Empty. Presuming they are referring to A and B, are they stating that with a multimeter or LED light tester, that Fuse 2 should be getting Juice if the orientation is proper?
I.E. in my image.. I have the fuse tab with the label fuses facing downward. But are they stating that it might go upward as well. That I should remove Fuse 1 and test to see if Fuse 2 is getting Juice in the downward direction?
UPWARD / DOWNWARD
