Connection was lost. 10amp fuse between battery and plug broke. Is 10amp correct? Will it keep popping if replaced?

The only thing I could find on fuses was in the book. Tow vehicle Must be Capable of providing 12V @ 20Amp for Electric Brake Applications, Up to brakes (3 axles). If it blows that fuse than I'd be checking for shorts or some other over load. Sorry I can't help more, so far mine has work fine.

Hi, the fuse is protecting the car from the trailer electrics. It is possible that something shorted in the trailer. I would check the trailer first for shorts.My fuse popped once when my trailer brakes shorted.

No issue with 10A Fuse and I've been using with my 2014 Tahoe LT for several months.

Did you try replacing the fuse? It is underneath where the plug connects on the amp. Call BK customer support if that doesn't work. They are terrific.

probably the fuser, we have used both original and rebuilt fusers with good and bad results. If its not critical, start with a cheaper rebuilt fuser. it should be under 150 USD

Not sure, it wasn't worth my time to return so I'm just using it for parts now. I can say that it wasn't the fuse (which was intact when I opened it). I also tried to troubleshoot by connecting PWD directly to GND and still nothing.

Do you mean use a fuse on it or repair it? I wired mine for 2 ohms. You have to make sure that your amp can carry the load, many people do not pay attention to ohms or RMS power.

I don't know about this one but I remember that I dropped the old on and when I took it apart I found a circuit breaker button the was no longer pressed in, I had broken the cap that held it depressed, I don't think there is s fuse. Be careful. Unplug an use a continuity tester.

If yours is the same as mine, the fuse holder is not connected to anything and mine was empty anyway. You might want to read my AOL review which addresses this issue.

Totally possible. Just replace the standard fuses with a few big 50's and let her buck. I'd call Minnkota first though....just to make sure that random guy on the internet is wrong. ;)

I had to replace the fuse once. If I recall correctly I think the original was a 5 but the electrician only had a 6 amp fuse. He told me it should work fine and we've not had any problems since. Hope this helps.

I am sorry I can't help, as I also faced the same issue. The moment I powered up, the fuse trip and the whole unit is down

Sally, before I would invest in a new battery, I would get a new USB cord. After purchasing the new battery and having to pay to have it installed because I could not get the battery compartment open, I found out that the "prongs" in the cable connection can become bent and thus not make a good connection.

Test the battery first, if it is low in AMP then this should fix the problem. Sometime, a loose wire or bad connectors can cause the issue...

Check the polarity of the connections, also check the load,too much will blow the fuse. It's to protect the inverter.If all else fails call the manufacturer.

Check the a/c unit, when the cables get bent or crimped, items tend not to turn on or off.If you can, flex the cable while plugged in, find the 'sweet spot' and tape a Popsicle stick to the cable (or anything else that keeps it in the correct position to work. IF the pwer supply is dead, read the back and see what amp/volts it has and use a substitute that matches. Worst case scenario search on amazon for a new charger. If there are none, let me know what the volts/amps are and I will list the one I removed from my printer and list it, if I still have it. I have 2 medium sized tubs of just power supplies from stuff that died. : ) Check the a/c unit, when the cables get bent or crimped, items tend not to turn on or off.If you can, flex the cable while plugged in, find the 'sweet spot' and tape a Popsicle stick to the cable (or anything else that keeps it in the correct position to work.

It blew a fuse in my car at an end on inflating a first tire. I was adding 7psi. this was 30A fuse (2 sockets on this circuit). I returned it because of this event. I didn't want to experiment whether it was a single event or failure of this one inflator, or typical over-current.

Use a volt ohm meter set to continuity and touch the red probe to one prong and the black probe to the other prong. If the meter reads open or over load it is bad.

Yes, it is fused and 10A current test uses another circuitry, and it is also fuse, but should not be over 10 seconds.
