  • blown Gauge Fuse

    Ok sounds stupid, but anyways my friend blew my 10A gauge fuse today and I put a 25A fuse in there cuz don't have a 10A around, and the lights on the gauge don't work, jus wondering if I need the 10A fuse or if something else is screwed

    Fuses don't blow for no reason. Very possible that your have a larger problem somewhere. You could be causing more damage by keeping a larger fuse in there.

        The gauge lights and the Gauges themselves should be on two different fuses.

          Well what fuse are the gauge lights on?

          Because I just bought a 10A fuse and put it in there, guages work now, but the backlights are still out, Fog lights are out, when headlights are on and keys arent in ignition that beeping noise isnt on..
