Hey guys, I feel like a noob for asking such a simple thing but after all my work it no workskis.
The car in question is my Subaru. Warranty refuses to cover repairs so they told me I have to see an auto electrician. I don't have the $300 I was quoted so i decided to do it myself.
I've probed a few mates to find out what is needed and gone ahead and installed it directly to my battery from the boot/cargo area. That one will be used for camping.
Anyway my mate told me to run 4mm wire, while another told me to run a 15A fuse. I've plugged it all in and... NOTHING
This access panel is for one of the tail lights.
I've run the one that come directly out of the back to the fuse, then battery. I one off to the side has been connected to a bolt that secures the tail light.
Now does it matter that the fuse holder I bought came with a 30A fuse? I think the wire is a thicker grade too. They only had that one and a real thin one with a 10A fuse.
that 30A holder should be able to take a 15A fuse? I didn't have a new one on hand so I took it out of my hardtop. It was in good nick but I didn't check it again after I tried my ph charger.
Please let me know what I've missed.
thanks,
J.
