Why do I keep Blowing Fuses after Installing them?
The Aftermarket Lights FAQ.htmOK, the new "ally" lights work great, but I've blown two fuses in two days. But they work great when the fuses are intact. It seems the fuse blows if I start the engine with the high beams (and the Rally) lights turned on. I don't know about the other years, but the '02 Dakar has the lights shut down while cranking, and then they come back on after the engine fires up. This is when the 15A in-line fuse seems to blow.
Related QuestionsWhy does my timer keep blowing fuses or tripping the circuit breaker?
Johnson Irrigation - Montreal's sprinkler and lighting contr...One or more of the electric control valves has a shorted solenoid, or there is a short in the wiring. If you have a multi meter or volt meter you can check your wiring and solenoids for shorts and continuity. Otherwise, try switching another solenoid from a functioning valve to see if the problem valve will turn on. If so, replace the solenoid. If not, you may have to replace the wiring. Check the transformer for output (24VAC). Push the red power reset button or verify that the fuse is good.
Related QuestionsQ4.Can you explain in simple terms why we are always blowing are power fuses, mainly in Winter?
Frequently asked questionsThe most likely cause is an overload and in winter portable heaters and clothes dryers generally cause this problem. The best solution is to look at each circuit and see what your loading is. Firstly look at the size of your circuit, for power it will be generally be 15,16 or 20 amps. Next multiply your circuit amps by 240 volts, this will give the maximum loading in watts that the circuit will carry without overloading it.

ORG FAQIf the proper size fuse is used (check the wiring diagrams in Haynes for the correct size), but keeps blowing, that should tell you something! The circuit, for whatever reason, is drawing more current than it should be! There is some possibility of there being a short to ground, but if the fuel pump (and car) is running, then suspect the fuel pump.
Related QuestionsWhy TWO Fuses?
F650 Flaying the VR FAQ (obsolete!)Flash suggests just putting in ONE fuse between the VR/Relay87/Battery+ is sufficient. (Red Dashed Line). i.e. Move EITHER fuse upstream of where the two fused branches come together. Then lose the second fuse entirely. However, HsN notes that's essentially the same as trying to just fuse the VR output. Then the battery positive runs straight to the VR with no fuse protection. If the VR should fail in a short, with no fuse Bad Things happen.

PAPHIOPEDILUM: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)Air movement is an essential component of growing Paphs, but in cultivation (whether greenhouse, under lights, or on windowsills) it is rare that fans blow air directly onto the plants. Rather, air is circulated nearby and around the plants to assist in transpiration and translocation (the plants' ability to absorb water and nutrients through root uptake), and to allow the plants cells to remain relatively balanced and thus grow freely.
