“Add-A-Fuse”

Hey guys I’m going to be adding a mictuning switch to my dash for a light bar and would like to know how everyone does the “add a fuse”. If you have experience adding a fuse any input would be helpful. Thanks.

 

I would just google it. Foolproof and a video beats a thousand words

 

Added a 100 amp fuse where the smaller 5-10 amp fuses (lights included) come off; on their own relay. Pop-N-Lock is piggy backed off existing wire and fuse.

Blue Sea aux. fuse panel. This way your not robbing power from an existing circuit. Your creating a new circuit.

Chris, another option is to just tap into the cargo light green wire. The draw is so minimal that this works fine without using an add a fuse.

This is why I cringe so hard when I read here "Yeah I added XYZ and it kept popping the factory 10A fuse so I just added a 20A fuse and everything works now"

 

Personally I would do a direct power feed off the battery and use a relay triggered by switched power.

 

Lol! This is over a year old. OP probably figured this out by now (or died in an electrical fire).
FWIW, he most likely meant to add a fuse just for the dash switch as stated in the OP, if you had read it...

 

Lol wth how did I even come across this....smdh sorry for the dead thread revival guys!

 

Maybe you googled how to add a fuse

 

Hah definitely not, I must have been scrolling through like page 10 of the threads on accident lol
