The fusible link amp rating is based on the output of the alternator. I would assume your alternator is no more than 90 amps -- a temp fuse rated @ 100 amps should do it.
you will probably have to replace the whole fuse box to be on the safe side but before you do that you must find out why you had a fire. was an incorrect size fuse used? was there shorted wiring? etc, then i'd call up a salvage yard and ask if they have the whole unit that comes the wire harnesses and connections already attached... just remove the screws that hold in the box and disconnect the two plugs and reverse it for installation. Warning! please make sure key is turned off or better yet disconnect the battery before attempting this. The fuses for cars and motorcycles will work fine just make sure on the new unit that you can read the amperage amount and use the correct size dont put in one thats only 5amps more unless it the first time its ever blown, and you need to get off the highway for saftey reasons. And dont even think about using the big 35 amp starter fuse to bypass anything, that would be *** bad as using a piece of tin foil. let me know if this info helped thanks
you want to put a 30A into the amp and the inline fuse that you put onto the wire should be greater than 30A but not too high for what the wire is rated. The best bet for wire is to buy a wiring kit which comes with fuse holder, right size fuse, wire for main power ground and remote. You may want to double check what is written on amp for the size to put in there. Technically you can put a 100A onto the wire if it is big enough and the fuse on amp will protect the amp from problems. Hope this helps, Good Luck
hello . what has happen is one of a couple of thing .? the wire could be burnt becouse of to menny amp's going throught it . becouse it's fuse is to big for the size of the wire. that you are using for your hot wire.to run your amp.!!! it work like this !!! the wire is gaged buy it's size .!!! and that determine's what size of fuse that could be used .!!! for that gage of wire.!!! in amp's.!!! that it let flow through it.!!! and a fuse is determin in it size in amp.!!' it will let flow through it the fuse. !!! and most likly you or someone has put to big of a fuse in .!!! you inline fuse holder .!!! that run's from the + hot of the battery all the way to your + side of your amp's.!!! that's mostlikly where you will find your problem.!!! check it first.!!! ok .!!! then check your amp it should have a fuse that plug's in to it .!! on the side of the amp.!!! you need to make sure that you use the right size of fuse for that gage of wire.!!! if you use to big of fuse you will have a wire fire or a melt down that burn's the wire in half or worst.!!! hope this help's you let me know.
