FWD fuse amp

Featured Replies

has there been an consensus made about what ampreage fuse you're supposed to use for the FWD fuse box?

 

it appears that my dutyC doesnt have power (i think a wire came apart from my Andyjo awd-4wd conversion switch) and i dont really want to drive around like that until i can take it to the garage on wednesday.

I was told it was a 15 amp. I have never seen it listed officially anywhere though.

yeah, i've heard 15 as well, but again, nothing official.

 

20'll probably be safe.

You could try a 10 amp...if it blows you can always go higher :rolleyes:

20A is what i've used ;)

and steve... Solder the ************ out of those wires.. you don't want those coming loose...

Correct - any old fuse will do. The Duty Solenoid C draws about 1.9 amps when it is engaged. There is a bit of a current inrush (i.e. transient spike) which is probably why Subaru recommends a 15 amp fuse, although I've used a 10 without blowing it for quite a while (nearly 2 years!!) in the past.

i just blame it on your shoddy instructions/plans

 

 

 

 

:grin:

my svx fuse box says to use a 10. I usually go 15 though.. because that's what my Legacy said it was.

maybe ... a paperclip???
